我為它定了界限，安設門閂門戶，

为它定界限，又安门和闩，

为它定界限，又安门和闩，

为它定界限，又安门和闩，

是我为它划定界限，并安上门和闩，

我为海定界限，又安置门闩和门户，

為它定界限，又安門和閂，

為它定界限，又安門和閂，

為它定界限，又安門和閂，

是我為它劃定界限，並安上門和閂，

我為海定界限，又安置門閂和門戶，

為定界限、而設門楗、

定其界址、設其門楗、

為定界限、為設門楗、

when I fixed limits for it and set its doors and bars in place,

I set limits for it. I put its doors and metal bars in place.

and prescribed limits for it and set bars and doors,

For I locked it behind barred gates, limiting its shores.

when I determined its boundaries and put its bars and doors in place,

And I placed boundaries on it And set a bolt and doors,

When I fixed My limit for it, And set bars and doors;

And marked out for it my bound, And set bars and doors,

when I determined its boundaries and put its bars and doors in place,

And brake up for it my decreed[ place], and set bars and doors,

when I prescribed its limits, and set in place its bolts and doors,

marked out for it my bound, set bars and doors,

你定了界限，叫水別越過，別回來淹沒大地。

永恆主發神諭說：連我、你們也不懼怕麼？在我面前、你們還不戰戰兢兢？我用沙做海的界限，永遠的定限，使它不能越犯；其水雖翻騰，卻不能得勝，其波浪雖匉訇，卻不能越過。

在水面上畫個圓的天涯，就是光暗的交界。

那麼我就要記起我的約，就是在我與你們之間、與各樣有生命的活物、就是凡有血肉的、之間、所立的；水就不再成為洪水，來毁滅凡有血肉的了。

上帝說：『天下的水要積聚在一處，讓旱地露出來。』就這樣成了。上帝稱旱地為地，稱水之積聚為海：上帝看這很好。

他聚集海水像在皮囊裏。將深洋安置於庫房中。
