The burden against Egypt: Behold, Jehovah rides on a swift cloud and comes into Egypt. And the idols of Egypt shall tremble at His presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in its midst.

Thus says Jehovah, Heaven is My throne, and earth My footstool. Where, then, is the house that you would build for Me? And where is the place of My rest?

He who sits in the Heavens shall laugh; Jehovah shall have them in derision.

Jehovah has dwelt at the Flood; yea, Jehovah remains as King forever.

To Him who rides on the Heavens of heavens from antiquity; lo, He sends out His voice, a mighty voice.

Behold, the nations are like a drop in a bucket, and are counted as the fine dust on the scales; behold, He lifts up the islands as a very little thing.

All the nations before Him are as nothing; and to Him they are accounted as less than nothing, and vanity.

There we saw the giants, the sons of Anak of the giants; and we were like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and so we were in their eyes.

Thus says Jehovah the Mighty God, He who created the heavens and stretched them out, spreading out the earth and its offspring; Who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk on it.

Thus says Jehovah, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb: I am Jehovah, who makes all things, who stretches out the heavens alone, who spreads out the earth by Myself;

And you forget Jehovah your Maker, who has stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth. And you dread continually, every day, because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy. And where is the fury of the oppressor?

He alone spreads out the heavens, and treads upon the waves of the sea;

Have you spread out the clouds with Him, firm as a molten mirror?

Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have become acquainted with understanding.

To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone,

Or who shut in the sea with doors, when it burst forth and came forth from the womb;

Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

They shall perish, but You will endure; yea, they shall all grow old like a garment; like clothing You will change them, and they shall be changed;

who covers Yourself with light as with a garment, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,

He has made the earth by His power; He has established the world by His wisdom, and has stretched out the heavens by His understanding.

The burden of the Word of Jehovah for Israel, says Jehovah, who stretches forth the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him.

And: You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of Your hands.

like a cloak You will fold them up, and they will be changed. But You are the same, and Your years will not fail.
