Exegesis
The verb phrase shamayim ʿā-sāh {שָׁמַיִם עָשָׂה | šā-mā-yim ʿā-sāh} ‘made the heavens’ inverts object–verb order for emphasis on the cosmic creation. In English, “For… but…” preserves the causal–adversative flow, and fronting “the heavens” retains the original focus on divine creative action.
In context — 1 Chronicles 16:26
For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the LORD made the heavens .
