Psalms 33:6

Context

33:6 By the Lord’s decree 1  the heavens were made;

by a mere word from his mouth all the stars in the sky were created. 2 

1 tn Heb “word.”

2 tn Heb “and by the breath of his mouth all their host.” The words “were created” are added in the translation for stylistic reasons; they are understood by ellipsis (note “were made” in the preceding line). The description is consistent with Gen 1:16, which indicates that God spoke the heavenly luminaries into existence.
