2 Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out  the heavens as a curtain,
         
                                
                        3 Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the  waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking  on wings of wind,
         
                                
                        4 Making His messengers -- the winds, His ministers -- the  flaming fire.
         
                                
                        5 He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the  age and for ever.
         
                                
                        6 The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above  hills do waters stand.
         
                                
                        7 From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder  haste away.
         
                                
                        8 They go up hills -- they go down valleys, Unto a place  Thou hast founded for them.
