⁴ The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.

² The Lord is great in Zion; he is high over all the nations.

¹ <To the chief music-maker on the Gittith. A Psalm. Of David.> O Lord, our Lord, whose glory is higher than the heavens, how noble is your name in all the earth!

⁹ For you, Lord, are most high over the earth; you are lifted up over all other gods.

¹ The Lord says, Heaven is the seat of my power, and earth is the resting-place for my feet: what sort of house will you make for me, and what place will be my resting-place?

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.

¹⁷ All the nations are as nothing before him; even less than nothing, a thing of no value.

¹⁵ See, the nations are to him like a drop hanging from a bucket, and like the small dust in the scales: he takes up the islands like small dust.

¹³ Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.

¹⁰ For your mercy is great, stretching up to the heavens, and your righteousness goes up to the clouds.

¹¹ Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens, let your glory be over all the earth.

²⁷ But is it truly possible that God may be housed on earth? see, heaven and the heaven of heavens are not wide enough to be your resting-place; how much less this house which I have made!
