6 aSheol
is naked before Him,
And Destruction has no covering.
7 aHe stretches out the north over empty space;
He hangs the earth on nothing.
8 aHe binds up the water in His thick clouds,
Yet the clouds
1 are not broken under it.
9 He covers the face of
His throne,
And spreads His cloud over it.
10 aHe drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters,
At the boundary of light and darkness.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble,
And are
1 astonished at His rebuke.
12 aHe stirs up the sea with His power,
And by His understanding He breaks up
1 the storm.
13 aBy His Spirit He adorned the heavens;
His hand pierced
bthe fleeing serpent.
