⁵ Thus says God, the Lord,
    who created the heavens and stretched them out,
    who spread out the earth and what comes from it,
who gives breath to the people upon it
    and spirit to those who walk in it:^(A)

¹⁵ It is he who made the earth by his power,
    who established the world by his wisdom
and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.^(A)

“In the beginning, Lord, you founded the earth,
    and the heavens are the work of your hands;^(A)
11 they will perish, but you remain;
    they will all wear out like clothing;^(B)
12 like a cloak you will roll them up,
    and like clothing^[a] they will be changed.
But you are the same,
    and your years will never end.”

²⁴ Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
    who formed you in the womb:
I am the Lord, who made all things,
    who alone stretched out the heavens,
    who by myself spread out the earth;^(A)

²⁵ Long ago you laid the foundation of the earth,
    and the heavens are the work of your hands.^(A)
26 They will perish, but you endure;
    they will all wear out like a garment.
You change them like clothing, and they pass away,^(B)
