By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. 1 He spoke, and it came to be, he commanded, and it stood firm. 2
God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 3
It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens, 4 who spread out the earth and what comes from it, who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk on it. 5
There is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist. 6
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 7
For by Jesus all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities – all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things hold together. 8 He upholds the universe by the word of his power. 9
