²⁷ I was there when he set the heavens in place,^(A)
    when he marked out the horizon^(B) on the face of the deep,
²⁸ when he established the clouds above^(C)
    and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,^(D)

⁸ He alone stretches out the heavens^(A)
    and treads on the waves of the sea.^(B)

²² He sits enthroned^(A) above the circle of the earth,
    and its people are like grasshoppers.^(B)
He stretches out the heavens^(C) like a canopy,^(D)
    and spreads them out like a tent^(E) to live in.^(F)

⁶ he builds his lofty palace^[a](A) in the heavens
    and sets its foundation^[b] on the earth;
he calls for the waters of the sea
    and pours them out over the face of the land—
    the Lord is his name.^(B)
