6 The heavens were made by the word of the Lord,ag

and all the stars, by the breath of his mouth.ah

7 He gathers the water of the sea into a heap;D

he puts the depths into storehouses.ai

8 Let the whole earth fear the Lord;

let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.a

9 For he spoke, and it came into being;

he commanded, and it came into existence.b
