And marked for it My [appointed] boundary
And set bars and doors [defining the shorelines],(A)

And said, ‘This far you shall come, but no farther;
And here your proud waves shall stop’?(B)

You covered it with the deep as with a garment;
The waters were standing above the mountains.(A)

At Your rebuke they fled;
At the sound of Your thunder they hurried away.

The mountains rose, the valleys sank down
To the place which You established for them.

You set a boundary [for the waters] that they may not cross over,
So that they will not return to cover the earth.

You covered it(A) with the watery depths(B) as with a garment;
    the waters stood(C) above the mountains.
But at your rebuke(D) the waters fled,
    at the sound of your thunder(E) they took to flight;
they flowed over the mountains,
    they went down into the valleys,
    to the place you assigned(F) for them.
You set a boundary(G) they cannot cross;
    never again will they cover the earth.

Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.

At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.

They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.

Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.

22 
‘Do you not fear Me?’ says the Lord.
‘Do you not tremble [in awe] in My presence?
For I have placed the sand as a boundary for the sea,
An eternal decree and a perpetual barrier beyond which it cannot pass.
Though the waves [of the sea] toss and break, yet they cannot prevail [against the sand ordained to hold them back];
Though the waves and the billows roar, yet they cannot cross over [the barrier].
[Is not such a God to be feared?]

22 Should you not fear(A) me?” declares the Lord.
    “Should you not tremble(B) in my presence?
I made the sand a boundary for the sea,(C)
    an everlasting barrier it cannot cross.
The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail;
    they may roar,(D) but they cannot cross it.

22 Fear ye not me? saith the Lord: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
