Psalm 104:5

5 Egli ha fondata la terra sulle sue basi; Giammai in perpetuo non sarà smossa.

Psalm 104:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 104:5

Who laid the foundations of the earth
Or "founded the earth upon its bases" ^F12; which some take to be the waters, according to ( Psalms 24:2 ) , others the centre of gravity in it; others the mountains; others the circumambient air, by which it is poised; rather the almighty power of God, by which it subsists; this is the work of Christ the Almighty; see ( Hebrews 1:3 Hebrews 1:10 ) .

That it should not be removed for ever:
for though it may be shaken by earthquakes, yet not removed; nor will it be until the dissolution of all things, when it shall flee away before the face of the Judge, and a new earth shall succeed, ( Revelation 20:11 ) ( 21:1 ) .

Psalm 104:5 In-Context

3 Egli fa i palchi delle sue sale nelle acque; Egli pone le nuvole per suo carro: Egli passeggia sopra le ale del vento.

4 Egli fa i venti suoi Angeli, E il fuoco divampante suoi ministri.

5 Egli ha fondata la terra sulle sue basi; Giammai in perpetuo non sarà smossa.

6 Tu l’avevi già coperta dell’abisso, come d’una vesta; Le acque si erano fermate sopra i monti.

7 Esse fuggirono per lo tuo sgridare; Si affrettarono per la voce del tuo tuono;
