Psalms 24:2 Cross References - Thomson

² Upon the seas he laid its foundations; and established it upon the floods.

⁹ Then God said, "Let the water which is below the heaven be gathered into one receptacle and let the dry land appear." ¹⁰ And it was so. The waters which were below the heaven were gathered into their several collections, and the dry land appeared. And God called the dry land, earth; and the collections of the waters he called, seas. And God saw that it was good.

²² While the earth continueth, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and spring, with a succession of day and night shall not cease."

⁴ Where wast thou, when I laid the foundations of the earth? And tell me, if thou hast understanding,

⁸ It was I who shut up the sea with gates, when it rushed eagerly from its mother's womb. ⁹ It was I who made a cloud its cloathing; and thick darkness its swaddling bands. ¹⁰ It was I who set bounds to it; surrounded it with bars and gates; ¹¹ and said to it, Thus far thou shalt come and no farther: but in thyself thy waves shall be spent.

⁶ By the word of the Lord the heavens were established, and all their host by the breath of his mouth.

¹ For the day preceding the Sabbath, when the World was stocked with inhabitants. The praise of an Ode by David. The Lord hath commenced his reign; hath robed himself with majesty. The Lord hath robed himself with power and girded it on. For he hath established the World, which cannot be shaken.

⁴ that in his hand are the limits of the earth; and the lofty mountains are his:

¹⁰ Say among the nations, The Lord is King, for he hath renovated this World, which shall no more be shaken; he will judge peoples with righteousness.

⁵ Who founded the earth on its firm basis, that it may not be moved forever. ⁶ Is the abyss like a garment to be its covering; are waters to stand above the mountains?

⁶ to him who established the earth on the waters: for his mercy endureth forever;

²² Will you not fear me, saith the Lord, nor be struck with awe at the presence of me who have by an everlasting decree, made sand a boundary to the ocean, so that it shall not pass it. Though it be tossed with a tempest, it shall not prevail; though the waves thereof roar, they shall not overpass it.

¹¹ Thus shall you say to them. Let the gods, which have not made heaven and earth, perish from the earth and from under heaven. ¹² It is the Lord who made the earth by his power, who established the World by his wisdom: and by his understanding spread out the heaven, ¹³ and the multitude of waters in heaven: when he brought up clouds from the extremity of the earth; he made the lightning for rain, and brought light forth from his treasuries. ¹⁴ Every man on account of knowledge became foolish. Every melter of gold was put to shame for his graven images, because he cast falsities and there is no breath in them. ¹⁵ These ridiculous works are vain; in the time of their visitation they shall perish. ¹⁶ Unlike to these is the portion of Jacob: for he who formed all things is his inheritance. His name is, The Lord.

⁵ For this they wilfully forget, that by the word of God there were heavens of old, and an earth consisting of water and in water, ⁶ by which the world that then existed, being deluged, was destroyed; ⁷ but the heavens and the earth which now exist are, by the same word, treasured up for fire, being kept for the day of judgment, and destruction of these impious men.
