^13†Thou hast a mighty arme: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.

¹⁹And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

¹⁹And lest thou lift vp thine eyes vnto heauen, and when thou seest the sun, and the moone, and the starres, euen all the hoste of heauen, shouldest be driuen to worship them, and serue them, which the LORD thy God hath ^‖diuided vnto all nations vnder the whole heauen.

¹THUS the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

²And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

¹¶ Thus the heauens and the earth were finished, and all the hoste of them.

^2*And on the seuenth day God ended his worke, which hee had made: And he rested on the seuenth day from all his worke, which he had made.

⁵¶ Thus saith God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

⁵¶ Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heauens, and stretched them out, he that spread foorth the earth and that which commeth out of it, he that giueth breath vnto the people vpon it, and spirit to them that walke therein:

⁷I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

⁷I forme the light, and create darkenesse: I make peace, and create euill: I the LORD do all these things.

²⁶If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;

²⁷And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:

²⁸This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.

²⁶If I beheld ^†the Sunne when it shined, or the Moone walking ^† in brightnesse:

²⁷And my heart hath bene secretly enticed, or ^†my mouth hath kissed my hand:

²⁸This also were an iniquitie to be punished by the Iudge: For I should haue denied the God that is aboue.

³Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

⁴Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

⁵Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.

⁶He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

⁶Hee hath also stablished them for euer and euer: he hath made a decree which shall not passe.

¹THE heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

¹¶ The heauens declare the glory of God: and the firmament sheweth his handy worke.

¹⁶¶ Seek ye out of the book of the Lord, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.

¹⁶¶ Seeke ye out of the booke of the LORD, and reade: no one of these shall faile, none shall want her mate: for my mouth, it hath commaunded, and his spirit, it hath gathered them.

¹¹Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.

¹²He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.

¹¹Thus shal ye say vnto them, The Gods that haue not made the heauens, & the earth, euen they shall perish from the earth, & from vnder these heauens.

^12*Hee hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauens by his discretion.

²⁵Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.

^25*Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heauens are the worke of thy hands.

³When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

⁴What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

³When I consider thy heauens, the worke of thy fingers, the moone and the starres which thou hast ordained;
