3 You built your home above them. You use the thick clouds like a chariot and ride across the sky on the wings of the wind.
4 You make the winds your messengers and flames of fire your servants.
5 You built the earth on its foundations, so it can never be moved.
6 You covered it with water like a blanket. The water covered even the mountains.
7 But you gave the command, and the water turned back. You shouted at the water, and it rushed away.
8 The water flowed down from the mountains into the valleys, to the places you made for it.
9 You set the limits for the seas, and the water will never again rise to cover the earth.
