40:22 He is the one who sits on the earth’s horizon; 1
its inhabitants are like grasshoppers before him. 2
He is the one who stretches out the sky like a thin curtain, 3
and spreads it out 4 like a pitched tent. 5
42:5 This is what the true God, 6 the Lord, says –
the one who created the sky and stretched it out,
the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, 7
the one who gives breath to the people on it,
and life to those who live on it: 8
45:12 I made the earth,
I created the people who live 9 on it.
It was me – my hands 10 stretched out the sky, 11
I give orders to all the heavenly lights. 12
48:13 Yes, my hand founded the earth;
my right hand spread out the sky.
I summon them;
they stand together.
51:13 Why do you forget 13 the Lord, who made you,
who stretched out the sky 14
and founded the earth?
Why do you constantly tremble all day long 15
at the anger of the oppressor,
when he makes plans to destroy?
Where is the anger of the oppressor? 16
9:8 he alone spreads out the heavens,
and treads 17 on the waves of the sea; 18
26:7 He spreads out the northern skies 19 over empty space; 20
he suspends the earth on nothing. 21
104:2 He covers himself with light as if it were a garment.
He stretches out the skies like a tent curtain,
51:15 He is the one who 22 by his power made the earth.
He is the one who by his wisdom fixed the world in place,
by his understanding he spread out the heavens.
