6 Il secoue la terre sur sa base, Et ses colonnes sont ébranlées.

7 Il commande au soleil, et le soleil ne paraît pas; Il met un sceau sur les étoiles.

8 Seul, il étend les cieux, Il marche sur les hauteurs de la mer.

9 Il a créé la Grande Ourse, l’Orion et les Pléiades, Et les étoiles des régions australes.

10 Il fait des choses grandes et insondables, Des merveilles sans nombre.
