Now if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, you will be My treasured possession out of all the nations—for the whole earth is Mine.
A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein.
The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth He has given to mankind.
You alone are the LORD. You created the heavens, the highest heavens with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all things, and the host of heaven worships You.
Praise Him, O highest heavens, and you waters above the skies.
But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.
By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is Mine, and the fullness thereof.
But will God indeed dwell with man upon the earth? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.
Moses said to him, “When I have left the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
But if someone tells you, “This food was offered to idols,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience—
…for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.”
