3 You build your palace high in the heavens. You make the clouds serve as your chariot. You ride on the wings of the wind.
4 You make the winds serve as your messengers. You make flashes of lightning serve you.
5 You placed the earth on its foundations. It can never be moved.
6 You covered it with the oceans like a blanket. The waters covered the mountains.
7 But you commanded the waters, and they ran away. At the sound of your thunder they rushed off.
8 They flowed down the mountains. They went into the valleys. They went to the place you appointed for them.
9 You drew a line they can't cross. They will never cover the earth again.
