^rstretching out the heavens like a tent.

3  He lays the beams of his ^schambers on the waters;

he makes the clouds his chariot;

he rides on the wings of the wind;

4  ^the makes his messengers winds,

his ministers a flaming fire.

5  He set the earth on its foundations,

so that it should never be moved.

27  ^hThese all look to you,

to give them their food in due season.

28  When you give it to them, they gather it up;

when you ⁱopen your hand, they are ^jfilled with good things.

29  When you ^khide your face, they are dismayed;

when you ^ltake away their breath, they die

and ^mreturn to their dust.

30  When you send forth your Spirit,¹ they are created,

and you renew the face of the ground.

3  Our God is in the heavens;

^uhe does all that he pleases.
