    when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,^(A)

¹⁰ He has described a circle on the face of the waters,
    at the boundary between light and darkness.^(A)

²² It is he who sits above the circle of the earth,
    and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,
who stretches out the heavens like a curtain
    and spreads them like a tent to live in,^(A)

¹⁹ The Lord by wisdom founded the earth;
    by understanding he established the heavens;^(A)

⁵ who by understanding made the heavens,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;^(A)

¹¹ He will feed his flock like a shepherd;
    he will gather the lambs in his arms
and carry them in his bosom
    and gently lead the mother sheep.^(A)
