20 “Declare this in the house of Jacob
And proclaim it in Judah, saying,
21 ‘Hear this now, O (A)foolish people,
Without [a]understanding,
Who have eyes and see not,
And who have ears and hear not:
22 (B)Do you not fear Me?’ says the Lord.
‘Will you not tremble at My presence,
Who have placed the sand as the (C)bound of the sea,
By a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass beyond it?
And though its waves toss to and fro,
Yet they cannot prevail;
Though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.
