| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2He wraps himself in light as if it were a robe, spreading out the sky like a canopy, |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3laying the beams of his palace on the waters above, making the clouds his chariot, walking on the wings of the wind, |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4and making the winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5He established the earth on its foundations; it will never be shaken. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6You covered it with the deep as if it were a garment; the water stood above the mountains. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7At your rebuke the water fled; at the sound of your thunder they hurried away-- |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8mountains rose and valleys sank--to the place you established for them. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9You set a boundary they cannot cross; they will never cover the earth again. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10He causes the springs to gush into the valleys; they flow between the mountains. |

| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16The trees of the LORD flourish, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17There the birds make their nests; storks make their homes in the pine trees. |
