The Heavenly Canopy

He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth,

and its people are like grasshoppers.

He stretches out the heavens like a canopy,

and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

Isaiah 40:22

(The Message)

I have put my words in your mouth

and hidden you safely in my hand.

I stretched out the sky like a canopy

and laid the foundations of the earth.

I am the one who says. .

‘You are my people!’

Isaiah 51:16

(Contemporary English Version)
