59 He shut up the sea in the midst of the waters and suspended the earth over the waters by his word.

2 Esdras 16:59 In-Context

57 At his word the stars were established, and he knows their number.
58 He examines the abyss and its treasuries. He measures the sea and its contents.
59 He shut up the sea in the midst of the waters and suspended the earth over the waters by his word.
60 He stretched out the heaven like a vaulted ceiling and sank its pillars into the waters.
61 He put springs of water in the desert and lakes on the tops of mountains to send forth rivers from on high so that the earth might drink.
