¹⁵ May you be blessed by the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven^(A) and earth.

⁵ This is what God the Lord says—
the Creator of the heavens,^(A) who stretches them out,
    who spreads out the earth^(B) with all that springs from it,^(C)
    who gives breath^(D) to its people,
    and life to those who walk on it:

I am the Lord,
    the Maker of all things,
    who stretches out the heavens,^(D)
    who spreads out the earth^(E) by myself,

¹² But God made^(B) the earth^(C) by his power;
    he founded the world by his wisdom^(D)
    and stretched out the heavens^(E) by his understanding.
