⁶ He has put them in their places for ever; he has given them their limits which may not be broken.

²⁵ The Lord has said, If I have not made day and night, and if the limits of heaven and earth have not been fixed by me,

³³ Have you knowledge of the laws of the heavens? did you give them rule over the earth?

³⁷ It will be fixed for ever like the moon; and the witness in heaven is true. (Selah.)

³⁵ These are the words of the Lord, who has given the sun for a light by day, ordering the moon and stars for a light by night, who puts the sea in motion, causing the thunder of its waves; the Lord of armies is his name.

³⁶ If the order of these things before me is ever broken, says the Lord, then will the seed of Israel come to an end as a nation before me for ever.

⁹⁰ Your faith is unchanging from generation to generation: you have put the earth in its place, and it is not moved.

⁹¹ They are ruled this day by your decisions; for all things are your servants.

¹⁰ Ordering a fixed limit for it, with locks and doors;

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

¹ The Lord is King; he is clothed with glory; the Lord is clothed with strength; power is the cord of his robe; the world is fixed, so that it may not be moved.

²⁷ When he made ready the heavens I was there: when he put an arch over the face of the deep:

²⁸ When he made strong the skies overhead: when the fountains of the deep were fixed:

²⁹ When he put a limit to the sea, so that the waters might not go against his word: when he put in position the bases of the earth:

⁹ For this is like the days of Noah to me: for as I took an oath that the waters of Noah would never again go over the earth, so have I taken an oath that I will not again be angry with you, or say bitter words to you.
