^6 (A)By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And all the ^(B)host of them ^(C)by the breath of His mouth.
^7 (D)He gathers the waters of the sea together ^[a]as a heap;
He lays up the deep in storehouses.

⁸ Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
⁹ For ^(E)He spoke, and it was done;
He commanded, and it stood fast.

⁵ Thus says God the Lord,
^(A)Who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it,
^(B)Who gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk on it:
