爾元始肇基乎地、創造乎天兮、

主在古初創立地之根基、天亦為主手所造、

長跪白我主。盛年莫見折。我主壽無量。豈靳此一勺。

In the beginning you made the earth secure. You placed it on its foundations. Your hands created the heavens.

Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.

Long ago you laid the foundation of the earth and made the heavens with your hands.

Long ago you established the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.

In time of old You founded the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

Of old didst thou lay the foundation of the earth; And the heavens are the work of thy hands.

Long ago You established the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens[ are] the work of thy hands.

In earlier times you established the earth; the skies are your handiwork.

Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

He also says,“ In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment.You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end.”

For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.

Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.

I was formed long ages ago, at the very beginning, when the world came to be.When there were no watery depths, I was given birth, when there were no springs overflowing with water;before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth,before he made the world or its fields or any of the dust of the earth.I was there when he set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep,when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.Then I was constantly at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence,rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.“ Now then, my children, listen to me; blessed are those who keep my ways.Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not disregard it.Blessed are those who listen to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord.But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me love death.”

“ Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.

“ Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand.Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone—while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?

For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.
