⁴ The Lord is truthful;
    he can be trusted.
⁵ He loves justice and fairness,
and he is kind to everyone
    everywhere on earth.

⁶ The Lord made the heavens
and everything in them
    by his word.
⁷ He scooped up the ocean
    and stored the water.
⁸ Everyone in this world
should worship and honor
    the Lord!
⁹ As soon as he spoke
    the world was created;
at his command,
    the earth was formed.
