⁸ By whose hand the heavens were stretched out, and who is walking on the waves of the sea:

²⁴ The Lord, who has taken up your cause, and who gave you life in your mother's body, says, I am the Lord who makes all things; stretching out the heavens by myself, and giving the earth its limits; who was with me?

²² It is he who is seated over the arch of the earth, and the people in it are as small as locusts; by him the heavens are stretched out like an arch, and made ready like a tent for a living-place.

² You are clothed with light as with a robe; stretching out the heavens like a curtain:

³ The arch of your house is based on the waters; you make the clouds your carriage; you go on the wings of the wind:

¹ The word of the Lord about Israel. The Lord by whom the heavens are stretched out and the bases of the earth put in place, and the spirit of man formed inside him, has said:

¹¹ This is what you are to say to them: The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth will be cut off from the earth and from under the heavens.

¹⁸ Will you, with him, make the skies smooth, and strong as a polished looking-glass?

¹⁹ After they had gone three or four miles they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near to the boat; and they had great fear.

²⁵ And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.

²⁶ And when they saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they gave cries of fear.

²⁷ But straight away Jesus said to them, Take heart; it is I, have no fear.

²⁸ And Peter, answering, said to him, Lord, if it is you, give me the order to come to you on the water.

²⁹ And he said, Come. And Peter got out of the boat, and walking on the water, went to Jesus.

³⁰ But when he saw the wind he was in fear and, starting to go down, he gave a cry, saying, Help, Lord.

⁵ God the Lord, even he who made the heavens, measuring them out on high; stretching out the earth, and giving its produce; he who gives breath to the people on it, and life to those who go about on it, says:

³ The rivers send up, O Lord, the rivers send up their voices; they send them up with a loud cry.

⁴ The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.

¹⁹ Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps.

⁶ By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the army of heaven by the breath of his mouth.

¹⁶ Have you come into the springs of the sea, walking in the secret places of the deep?

¹¹ And said, So far you may come, and no farther; and here the pride of your waves will be stopped?

⁶ And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters.

⁷ And God made the arch for a division between the waters which were under the arch and those which were over it: and it was so.
