Job 38:8-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 Who shut within doors the sea,
when it burst forth from the womb,(A)
9 When I made the clouds its garment
and thick darkness its swaddling bands?
10 When I set limits for it
and fastened the bar of its door,
11 And said: Thus far shall you come but no farther,
and here shall your proud waves stop?
Psalm 65:6-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
II
6 You answer us with awesome deeds[a] of justice,
O God our savior,
The hope of all the ends of the earth
and of those far off across the sea.(A)
7 You are robed in power,
you set up the mountains by your might.
Isaiah 40:12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Power of God and the Vanity of Idols
12 Who has measured with his palm the waters,
marked off the heavens with a span,
held in his fingers the dust of the earth,
weighed the mountains in scales
and the hills in a balance?[a]
