Old Testament
Earth described as fixed, immovable, or established
- 1 Chronicles 16:30 — “The world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.”
- Psalm 93:1 — “The world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.”
- Psalm 96:10 — “The world also shall be established that it shall not be moved.”
- Psalm 104:5 — “Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.”

- Jeremiah 51:15 — “He hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.”
New Testament
The New Testament contains considerably fewer passages that explicitly address the Earth’s motion.
- 2 Peter 3:5 — speaks of “the earth standing out of the water and in the water.”
- Revelation 6:13–14 — describes the heavens departing “as a scroll when it is rolled together.”
- Revelation 7:1 — four angels stand “on the four corners of the earth,” holding the four winds.
- Revelation 20:9 — speaks of “the breadth of the earth.”
- Matthew 4:8 — Satan takes Jesus to a very high mountain and shows Him “all the kingdoms of the world.”
- Luke 4:5 — similarly says Satan showed Jesus “all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.”
Particularly important passages for a geocentric argument
If your specific thesis is “the Earth does not rotate and the Sun moves,” the strongest passages to examine closely are:
- Joshua 10:12–13 — Sun and Moon commanded to stop.
- Habakkuk 3:11 — Sun and Moon standing still.
- Ecclesiastes 1:5 — Sun rises, sets, and returns.
- Psalm 19:4–6 — Sun travels a course across the heavens.
- 1 Chronicles 16:30 — world not being moved.
- Psalm 93:1 — world established so it cannot be moved.
- Psalm 96:10 — world established so it cannot be moved.
- Psalm 104:5 — Earth not removed.
- Isaiah 38:8 — movement of the Sun’s shadow reversed.
- Ecclesiastes 1:4 — Earth remains perpetually.
However, none of these verses explicitly says “the Earth does not rotate on its axis.” That’s an important distinction. A biblical-geocentric argument generally has to combine the statements about the Earth being immovable with statements describing celestial bodies as moving.
If you’d like, I can also produce a truly exhaustive list (50–100+ passages) including every verse concerning “foundations of the earth,” “ends/corners of the earth,” the firmament, pillars of heaven/earth, the Sun’s motion, stars moving/falling, and passages traditionally cited against a spherical/rotating Earth, with the full KJV text of each verse.
Absolutely. Below is a large, categorized KJV compilation of passages commonly used in arguments for a geocentric, non-rotating, stationary Earth and related biblical cosmology.
A necessary distinction: the Bible never explicitly says, “the Earth does not rotate.” The argument is cumulative: passages describe the Earth as fixed/immovable, while the Sun, Moon, stars, and heavens are repeatedly described as moving. Some passages are poetic or phenomenological, so whether they constitute a scientific cosmological statement is disputed.
I’ll use the King James Version (KJV) because that is the traditional English translation used in many of these arguments.
1. Earth explicitly described as immovable
These are arguably the most important passages for a geocentric argument.
1. 1 Chronicles 16:30
“Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.”
2. Psalm 93:1
“The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.”
3. Psalm 96:10
“Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.”
4. Psalm 104:5
“Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.”
5. Ecclesiastes 1:4
“One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.”
6. Psalm 119:90
“Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.”
7. Psalm 75:3
“The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.”
8. Psalm 82:5
“They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.”
9. Isaiah 14:7
“The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.”
10. Isaiah 45:18
“For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.”
2. The Earth has foundations
These passages are particularly important to traditional biblical-cosmology arguments.
11. 1 Samuel 2:8
“For the pillars of the earth are the LORD’S, and he hath set the world upon them.”
12. Job 9:6
“Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.”
Notice that this verse is especially interesting because it speaks of God shaking the Earth out of its place.
13. Job 38:4
“Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.”
14. Job 38:5
“Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?”
15. Job 38:6
“Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;”
16. Psalm 18:7
“Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.”
17. Psalm 82:5
“They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.”
18. Psalm 102:25
“Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.”
19. Proverbs 8:29
“When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:”
20. Isaiah 48:13
“Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens.”
21. Isaiah 51:13
“And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth.”
22. Isaiah 51:16
“And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth.”
23. Jeremiah 31:37
“Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath…”
24. Micah 6:2
“Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD’S controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth…”
3. The Sun rises, travels, and sets
These are among the strongest passages for the argument that Scripture describes solar motion.
25. Ecclesiastes 1:5
“The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.”
This is one of the clearest descriptions of a recurring solar circuit.
26. Psalm 19:4
“Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,”
27. Psalm 19:5
“Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.”
28. Psalm 19:6
“His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.”
The word “circuit” is particularly significant in geocentric interpretations.
4. Joshua commands the Sun to stop
This is probably the single most famous passage used by biblical geocentrists.
29. Joshua 10:12
“Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.”
30. Joshua 10:13
“And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies…”
The passage doesn’t merely record Joshua’s words; verse 13 says:
“the sun stood still”
31. Joshua 10:14
“And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man…”
For a geocentric reading, this raises the question: if the Sun’s apparent movement results solely from Earth’s rotation, why does Scripture describe the Sun itself as standing still?
The conventional response is that Scripture is using observational language, but the geocentric interpretation takes the wording more literally.
5. Another passage where the Sun stands still
32. Habakkuk 3:11
“The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.”
This is significant because it independently describes the Sun and Moon standing still.
6. The Sun’s shadow moves backward
33. 2 Kings 20:9
“And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?”
34. 2 Kings 20:10
“And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.”
35. 2 Kings 20:11
“And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.”
36. Isaiah 38:8
“Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.”
The wording “the sun returned ten degrees” is particularly interesting.
7. The Sun and Moon govern the day and night
37. Genesis 1:14
“And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night…”
38. Genesis 1:16
“And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.”
39. Genesis 1:17
“And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,”
40. Genesis 1:18
“And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness…”
For a traditional geocentric interpretation, the Sun, Moon and stars are therefore lights placed in the heavens above the Earth.
8. The firmament
The Hebrew cosmological language concerning the firmament is another major component of biblical-geocentric arguments.
41. Genesis 1:6
“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”
42. Genesis 1:7
“And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament.”
43. Genesis 1:8
“And God called the firmament Heaven.”
44. Genesis 1:14
“And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven…”
45. Genesis 1:15
“And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth…”
46. Genesis 1:17
“And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,”
47. Genesis 1:20
“…fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.”
48. Psalm 19:1
“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.”
49. Ezekiel 1:22
“And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.”
50. Ezekiel 1:26
“And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne…”
51. Daniel 12:3
“And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament…”
9. Heavens stretched out
These passages can be significant when constructing a biblical cosmological model.
52. Psalm 104:2
“Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:”
53. Isaiah 40:22
“It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain…”
54. Isaiah 42:5
“Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out…”
55. Isaiah 44:24
“…I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone…”
56. Isaiah 45:12
“I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens…”
57. Isaiah 48:13
“Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens…”
58. Isaiah 51:13
“…the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth…”
59. Jeremiah 10:12
“…he hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.”
60. Jeremiah 51:15
“…he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.”
61. Zechariah 12:1
“…which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth…”
10. The heavens described as a “host”
62. Genesis 2:1
“Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.”
63. Deuteronomy 4:19
“And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven…”
64. Deuteronomy 17:3
“And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven…”
65. 2 Kings 17:16
“…and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.”
66. 2 Kings 21:3
“…and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.”
67. 2 Kings 23:5
“…that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.”
11. Stars described as moving/falling
These passages can be relevant to a traditional celestial-sphere interpretation.
68. Judges 5:20
“They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.”
The phrase “stars in their courses” is especially noteworthy.
69. Job 38:7
“When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?”
70. Isaiah 34:4
“And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll…”
71. Matthew 24:29
“…and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”
72. Mark 13:25
“And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.”
73. Luke 21:25
“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars…”
74. Revelation 6:13
“And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs…”
75. Revelation 8:10
“And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp…”
12. The heavens can be “shaken”
76. Isaiah 13:13
“Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place…”
This is an exceptionally interesting verse for the subject because it explicitly says:
“the earth shall remove out of her place”
The geocentric argument generally understands this as implying that the Earth ordinarily has a defined, established position.
77. Haggai 2:6
“…I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;”
78. Haggai 2:21
“I will shake the heavens and the earth;”
79. Hebrews 12:26
“…Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.”
13. Four corners / extremities of Earth
These are frequently cited in discussions of biblical cosmology, although they don’t necessarily imply a literal flat Earth.
80. Isaiah 11:12
“And he shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.”
81. Ezekiel 7:2
“…An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.”
82. Revelation 7:1
“And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth…”
83. Revelation 20:8
“And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth…”
These passages are much weaker evidence for geocentrism, because “four corners” can naturally mean the four directions/extremities.
14. “Ends of the Earth”
84. Deuteronomy 28:49
“The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth…”
85. Psalm 2:8
“Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”
86. Psalm 22:27
“All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD…”
87. Psalm 46:9
“He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth…”
88. Psalm 48:10
“…thy praise unto the ends of the earth…”
89. Psalm 59:13
“…that they may know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth.”
90. Psalm 65:5
“…who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth…”
91. Psalm 72:8
“He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.”
92. Isaiah 40:28
“…the Creator of the ends of the earth…”
93. Isaiah 41:5
“The isles saw it, and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid…”
94. Isaiah 45:22
“Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth…”
95. Isaiah 52:10
“…all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.”
96. Micah 5:4
“…for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.”
97. Acts 1:8
“…unto the uttermost part of the earth.”
15. The Earth “beneath” and heaven “above”
98. Exodus 20:4
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath…”
99. Deuteronomy 4:39
“Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath…”
100. Joshua 2:11
“…for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.”
101. 1 Kings 8:23
“…thou LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath…”
102. Psalm 115:15
“Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.”
103. Psalm 115:16
“The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.”
That last verse is especially interesting in discussions of a heaven/earth distinction.
16. The Earth beneath the heavens
104. Genesis 6:17
“…to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.”
105. Genesis 7:19
“And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.”
106. Deuteronomy 2:25
“…I will begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven…”
107. Deuteronomy 4:19
“…the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven…”
17. God “comes down” from heaven
These aren’t necessarily geocentric proofs, but they’re part of the biblical spatial language frequently discussed in cosmology.
108. Genesis 11:5
“And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower…”
109. Genesis 18:21
“I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it…”
110. Exodus 19:18
“And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire…”
111. Exodus 34:5
“And the LORD descended in the cloud…”
112. Psalm 18:9
“He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.”
113. Isaiah 64:1
“Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down…”
18. The Earth beneath God’s feet / heaven above
114. Exodus 24:10
“And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone…”
115. Isaiah 66:1
“Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool…”
116. Matthew 5:35
“…nor by the earth; for it is his footstool…”
117. Acts 7:49
“Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool…”
19. “Circle of the earth”
This passage deserves special attention because it is sometimes presented as evidence for a spherical Earth rather than against it.
118. Isaiah 40:22
“It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers…”
The Hebrew word translated “circle” is chug. It can refer to a circle, circuit, or vault/horizon. It should therefore not be casually claimed as an explicit statement that Earth is either spherical or flat.
20. Earth suspended / hanging
These are actually important counterpoints to simplistic “flat Earth” arguments.
119. Job 26:7
“He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.”
This is one of the strongest biblical passages against claiming that the Bible straightforwardly teaches that the Earth rests physically on pillars or a giant foundation.
It also illustrates why the passages have to be considered together rather than cherry-picked.
21. Earth as a world established by God
120. 1 Chronicles 29:11
“Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty…”
121. Psalm 24:1
“The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”
122. Psalm 33:5
“…the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.”
123. Psalm 89:11
“The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.”
124. Psalm 96:5
“For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.”
125. Psalm 102:25
“Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.”
126. Psalm 136:6
“To him that stretched out the earth above the waters…”
22. Passages where celestial bodies are treated as moving through heaven
127. Psalm 148:3
“Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.”
128. Psalm 148:4
“Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.”
129. Jeremiah 8:7
“Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming…”
130. Amos 5:8
“Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning…”
23. The stars have “ordinances”
131. Job 38:31
“Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?”
132. Job 38:32
“Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?”
133. Job 38:33
“Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?”
These are significant because God describes the heavens in terms of ordinances, seasons, and celestial organization.
24. Day/night as a divinely fixed cycle
134. Genesis 8:22
“While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”
135. Jeremiah 33:20
“Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night…”
136. Jeremiah 33:25
“Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night…”
137. Psalm 74:16
“The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.”
25. Particularly important passages to put together
If your purpose is specifically to construct the strongest biblical case for a stationary geocentric Earth, rather than merely collect cosmological verses, I’d put the evidence into this hierarchy:
Tier 1 — strongest
Earth doesn’t move
- 1 Chronicles 16:30
- Psalm 93:1
- Psalm 96:10
- Psalm 104:5
Sun moves / travels
- Ecclesiastes 1:5
- Psalm 19:4–6
Sun explicitly stops
- Joshua 10:12–14
- Habakkuk 3:11
Sun’s movement explicitly reversed
- 2 Kings 20:8–11
- Isaiah 38:8
Tier 2 — supporting cosmological language
- Job 9:6
- Job 26:7
- Job 38:4–6
- Psalm 75:3
- Psalm 82:5
- Psalm 102:25
- Proverbs 8:29
- Isaiah 13:13
- Isaiah 45:18
- Isaiah 48:13
- Jeremiah 31:37
- Zechariah 12:1
Tier 3 — celestial architecture
- Genesis 1:6–20
- Psalm 19:1
- Psalm 104:2
- Isaiah 40:22
- Ezekiel 1:22–26
- Daniel 12:3
- Psalm 148:4
Tier 4 — passages sometimes used for flat-earth arguments but which are considerably weaker
- Isaiah 11:12
- Ezekiel 7:2
- Revelation 7:1
- Revelation 20:8
- various “ends of the earth” passages
- “four corners” passages
Those expressions can readily be understood idiomatically, so they aren’t strong evidence by themselves.
The central biblical-geocentric argument
If we reduce the entire collection to its logical core, it looks something like this:
1. The Earth is described as established and not movable:
“the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.”
— Psalm 93:1
2. The Sun is described as traveling a circuit:
“His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it.”
— Psalm 19:6
3. The Sun rises and sets:
“The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.”
— Ecclesiastes 1:5
4. Joshua commands the Sun to stop:
“Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon.”
— Joshua 10:12
5. Scripture then says that the Sun actually stopped:
“And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed.”
— Joshua 10:13
6. Habakkuk independently describes the same phenomenon:
“The sun and moon stood still in their habitation.”
— Habakkuk 3:11
7. Isaiah describes the Sun returning backward:
“So the sun returned ten degrees…”
— Isaiah 38:8
That is the core textual case. The other passages build a broader biblical cosmological framework around it.
One important qualification
The evidence above is much stronger for “the Bible uses language consistent with a stationary Earth and moving Sun” than for the proposition “the Bible explicitly teaches a modern flat Earth.”
In fact, Job 26:7 — “he hangeth the earth upon nothing” — and Isaiah 40:22 — “the circle of the earth” — complicate a simplistic flat-Earth interpretation. Likewise, “four corners” and “ends of the Earth” can be idiomatic.
So there a
