For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.

Praise YAH! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise Him in the heights!

Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you stars of light!

Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for He commanded and they were created.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

And Jehovah said, I will obliterate man whom I have created from off the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and flying creatures of the heavens, for I regret having made them.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

By faith we understand that the universe was prepared by the Word of God, so that the things which are seen did not come into existence from things which are visible.

For of this they are willfully ignorant: that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,

Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His hosts!

Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you stars of light!

Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished.

And take heed, when you lift up your eyes to the heavens, and you see the sun, the moon, and the stars, all the host of the heavens, that you not be driven to bow down to them and serve them, which Jehovah your God has allotted to all the peoples under the heavens.

And they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of the heavens, which they have loved and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and to which they have bowed down. They shall not be gathered nor buried; they shall be as dung on the face of the earth.

who change the truth of God into the lie, and fear and serve the created things more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

You send forth Your Spirit, they are created; and You renew the face of the earth.

And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

By His Spirit He has made the heavens beautiful; His hand has brought forth the fleeing serpent.

The Spirit of the Mighty God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit.
