• Psalm 104

Creator
He wraps himself in light as with a garment
       he stretches out the heavens like a tent
  and lays the beams of his upper chambers on
their waters.        He makes the clouds his
chariot        and rides on the wings of the
wind. Psalm 1042-3

God Answers
Brace yourself like a man        I will
question you,        and you shall answer
me. Where were you when I laid the earth's
foundation?        Tell me, if you understand.
  Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you
know!        Who stretched a measuring line
across it?   On what were its footings set,
       or who laid its cornerstone-   while the
morning stars sang together        and all the
angels shouted for joy? Job 383-7
