{Who} laid the foundations of the earth, {that} it should not be removed for ever. {Who...: Heb. He hath founded the earth upon her bases}

And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:

Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what {is} his name, and what {is} his son's name, if thou canst tell?

Hath in these last days spoken unto us by {his} Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens {are} the work of thy hands.

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? {a measure: Heb. a tierce}

{It is} the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings {is} to search out a matter.

Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what {is} his name, and what {is} his son's name, if thou canst tell?

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, {and} lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set {them} among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth {are} the LORD'S, and he hath set the world upon them.

Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.

As thou knowest not what {is} the way of the spirit, {nor} how the bones {do grow} in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.

{It is} he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof {are} as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: {It is...: or, Him that}

Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

{Art} thou the first man {that} was born? or wast thou made before the hills?

Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens {are} the work of thy hands.

I have made the earth, the man and the beast that {are} upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.

Thy faithfulness {is} unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. {unto...: Heb. to generation and generation} {abideth: Heb. standeth}

Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?

Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

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

{Who} laid the foundations of the earth, {that} it should not be removed for ever. {Who...: Heb. He hath founded the earth upon her bases}

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. {before...: or, there shall be glory before his ancients}

Knowest thou {it}, because thou wast then born? or {because} the number of thy days {is} great?

Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; {and} caused the dayspring to know his place;

Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world? {the whole: Heb. all of it?}

For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what {is} his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, {is} his name. {wind: or, spirit}

I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars {was} about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God. {bottoms: Heb. cuttings off} {corruption: or, the pit}
