55 When the Lord said, "Let the world be created," it was done! When he said, "Let the sky be created," that was done too.

2 Esdras 16:55 In-Context

53 Sinners must not deny their sins. Those who say that they have not sinned against God and his majesty are only bringing fiery shame upon themselves.

54 The Lord certainly knows everything that people do; he knows their plans and innermost thoughts.

55 When the Lord said, "Let the world be created," it was done! When he said, "Let the sky be created," that was done too.

56 He set the stars in place by his command, and he knows how many of them there are.

57 He knows what is in the deepest part of the sea and the treasures that are there. He has measured the sea and everything that is in it.
