Liturgy sur Samuel 1 2:3
אַל־תַּרְבּ֤וּ תְדַבְּרוּ֙ גְּבֹהָ֣ה גְבֹהָ֔ה יֵצֵ֥א עָתָ֖ק מִפִּיכֶ֑ם כִּ֣י אֵ֤ל דֵּעוֹת֙ יְהוָ֔ה ולא [וְל֥וֹ] נִתְכְּנ֖וּ עֲלִלֽוֹת׃
Cessez, cessez vos paroles arrogantes, les bravades qui s’exhalent de votre bouche; car il dispose de toute science, l’Éternel, et toute œuvre lui est facile.

Praise God! He builds levels in the heavens12Amos 9:4. Radak explains that this refers to the nine celestial spheres which surround the earth and, thereby, constitute the heavens. and waters the mountains with clouds13Tehillim 104:13. Radak explains that this verse is based upon Bereishis 2:6, “And a cloud arose from the land and watered the ground below.” He provided a remembrance for his miracles14Tehillim 111:4. The phrase, as it appears in Tehillim, refers to remembrances of the miracles performed during the exodus from Egypt, (the specific remembrance is, however, disputed. Rashi says that it refers to the holidays and Sabbath). In this piyut, however, it might have a more general connotation. and counts all the actions of men.15I Shmuel, 2:3. Therefore will He be exalted He constructed a roof above the waters above the sky.16Tehillim 104:3. The construction of the heavens is described by the commentators to Tehillim 104:3 and Bereishis Rabbah. On the second day of creation, Hashem established the sky within the waters which subsequently separated the “upper waters” from the “lower waters.” Above the upper waters which lie above the sky, a ceiling or roof was placed.
