「大海從母胎奔騰而出時，誰為它劃定界限？

“海水冲出，如出胎胞，那时谁将它关闭呢？

“当海水冲出，如出母胎，谁用门将它关闭呢？

“当海水冲出，如出母胎，谁用门将它关闭呢？

“大海从母胎奔腾而出时，谁为它划定界限？

海水冲出如婴孩出母胎，那时谁用门把海水关闭呢？

海水衝出，如出胎胞，那時誰將它關閉呢？

「當海水衝出，如出母胎，誰用門將它關閉呢？

「當海水衝出，如出母胎，誰用門將它關閉呢？

海水沖出如嬰孩出母胎，那時誰用門把海水關閉呢？

『大海衝出，從胎裏出來時，誰早設門戶將海閉住呢？

海水洶湧、若出於胎、誰設門以閉之、

海水初生、孰堤防之、若閉其門、

海水初生、如子出胎、其時我禁遏之、猶如閉門、

“ Who shut up the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the womb,

“ Who created the ocean? Who caused it to be born?

“ Or who shut in the sea with doors when it burst out from the womb,

“ Who kept the sea inside its boundaries as it burst from the womb,

Who enclosed the sea behind doors when it burst from the womb,

“ Or who enclosed the sea with doors When it went out from the womb, bursting forth;

“ Or who shut in the sea with doors, When it burst forth and issued from the womb;

Or who shut up the sea with doors, When it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb;

Who enclosed the sea behind doors when it burst from the womb,

Or[ who] shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth,[ as if] it had issued out of the womb?

“ Who shut up the sea with doors when it burst forth, coming out of the womb,

“ Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke out of the womb,

上帝說：「天空下面的水要聚在一處，使乾地露出來。」果然如此。

難道你們不敬畏我嗎？這是耶和華說的。難道你們在我面前不顫抖嗎？我以沙石為海的界限，使水永遠不能越過它。洶湧的波濤不能逾越，澎湃的海浪不能漫過。

設定滄海的界限，使海水不得越過祂定的範圍，為大地奠定根基的時候，

漫過山巒，流進山谷，歸到你指定的地方。你為眾水劃定不可逾越的界線，以免大地再遭淹沒。

祂將海水聚在一處，把汪洋收進倉庫。

是我為它劃定界限，並安上門和閂，
