『大海衝出，從胎裏出來時，誰早設門戶將海閉住呢？

“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？

「大海從母胎奔騰而出時，誰為它劃定界限？

海水沖出如嬰孩出母胎，那時誰用門把海水關閉呢？

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：『天下的水要積聚在一處，讓旱地露出來。』就這樣成了。

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。

他為洋海定出界限，叫水不越犯其命令，他又畫定了大地的根基；

以致山嶺上升，峽谷下沉，諸水流歸於你奠定之地。你定了界限，叫水別越過，別回來淹沒大地。

他聚集海水像在皮囊裏。將深洋安置於庫房中。

我為它定了界限，安設門閂門戶，
