9 फिर परमेश्वर ने कहा, “आकाश के नीचे का जल एक स्थान में इकट्ठा हो जाए और सूखी भूमि दिखाई दे,” और वैसा ही हो गया। (2 पत. 3:5)10 और परमेश्वर ने सूखी भूमि को पृथ्वी कहा, तथा जो जल इकट्ठा हुआ उसको उसने समुद्र कहा; और परमेश्वर ने देखा कि अच्छा है।
Psalm 104
5 He set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved.6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.7 At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they took to flight.8 The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place that you appointed for them.9 You set a boundary that they may not pass, so that they might not again cover the earth.10 You make springs gush forth in the valleys; they flow between the hills;11 they give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.12 Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell; they sing among the branches.13 From your lofty abode you water the mountains; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.
