- to him who by understanding made the heavens, / for his steadfast love endures forever;
- to him who spread out the earth above the waters, / for his steadfast love endures forever;
- to him who made the great lights, / for his steadfast love endures forever;
- the sun to rule over the day, / for his steadfast love endures forever;
- the moon and stars to rule over the night, / for his steadfast love endures forever;
The study of creation is cosmogony. God created the universe ex nihilo.
