定其界址、設其門楗、

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，

我為它定了界限，安設門閂門戶，

為定界限、而設門楗、

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,

主立堤防以為限、水不能過、無復有淹決之虞兮、

耶和華云、我立命不易、以沙界海、洪濤澎湃、不得越其防、爾豈不寅畏、戰慄於我前。

圓包環海、以示幽顯。

於時我必念我與爾眾、及諸生物所立之約、嗣後必無洪水、翦滅眾生。

上帝曰、天下諸水宜滙一區、使陸地顯露。有如此也。謂陸地為壤、謂水滙為海、上帝視之為善。

使彼海水匯於一區、藏於深淵兮、
