²⁷ I was there when he established the heavens,
    when he drew the horizon on the oceans.

¹⁰ He created the horizon when he separated the waters;
    he set the boundary between day and night.

²² God sits above the circle of the earth.
    The people below seem like grasshoppers to him!
He spreads out the heavens like a curtain
    and makes his tent from them.

¹⁹ By wisdom the Lord founded the earth;
    by understanding he created the heavens.

¹² But the Lord made the earth by his power,
    and he preserves it by his wisdom.
With his own understanding
    he stretched out the heavens.

⁵ Give thanks to him who made the heavens so skillfully.
His faithful love endures forever.

¹¹ He will feed his flock like a shepherd.
    He will carry the lambs in his arms,
holding them close to his heart.
    He will gently lead the mother sheep with their young.

¹⁹ The Lord has made the heavens his throne;
    from there he rules over everything.
