'Earth' in the Bible

“For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans [who rule in Babylon],That fierce and impetuous nationWho march throughout the earthTo take possession of dwelling places that do not belong to them.

“They make fun of kingsAnd rulers are a laughing matter to them.They ridicule every strongholdAnd heap up rubble [for earth mounds] and capture it.

“Because you [king of Babylon] have looted many nations,All peoples who are left will loot you—Because of human bloodshed and for the violence done to the land,To the city and all its inhabitants.

“But [the time is coming when] the earth shall be filledWith the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,As the waters cover the sea.

“But the Lord is in His holy temple.Let all the earth hush and be silent before Him.”

God [approaching from Sinai] comes from Teman (Edom),And the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah (pause, and calmly think of that).His splendor and majesty covers the heavensAnd the earth is full of His praise.

He stood and measured the earth;He looked and startled the nations,Yes, the eternal mountains were shattered,The ancient hills bowed low and collapsed.His ways are eternal.

Your bow was made bare;The rods of chastisement were sworn. Selah (pause, calmly think of that).You split the earth with rivers [bringing waters to dry places].
