1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

⁹ Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.

⁴ Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

⁶ By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

⁹ For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

¹⁶ The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.

² Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

⁶ O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker.

⁷³ Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

¹⁴ I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
