6 The skies were made by the Lord’s word,all their starry multitude by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathered the ocean waters into a heap;he put the deep seas into storerooms.
8 All the earth honors the Lord;all the earth’s inhabitants stand in awe of him.
9 Because when he spoke, it happened!When he commanded, there it was!
10 The Lord overrules what the nations plan;he frustrates what the peoples intend to do.
11 But the Lord’s plan stands forever;what he intends to do lasts from one generation to the next.
12 The nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom God has chosen as his possession,is truly happy!
