Jeremiah

Jeremiah 51:15–16

¹⁵The LORD made the earth by His power;

He established the world by His wisdom

and stretched out the heavens by His understanding.

¹⁶When He thunders,

the waters in the heavens roar;

He causes the clouds to rise

from the ends of the earth.

He generates the lightning with the rain

and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.
