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

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、

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,

You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, that they don’t turn again to cover the earth.

Don’t you fear me?’ says Yahweh‘ Won’t you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea, by a perpetual decree, that it can’t pass it? Though its waves toss themselves, yet they can’t prevail. Though they roar, they still can’t pass over it.’

He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters, and to the confines of light and darkness.

I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

God said,“ Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;” and it was so.God called the dry land“ earth”, and the gathering together of the waters he called“ seas”. God saw that it was good.

He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
