When He assigned to the sea its limit, So that the waters would not transgress His command, When He marked out the foundations of the earth,

为沧海定出界限，使水不越过他的命令，立定大地的根基。

为沧海定出范围，使水不越过界限，奠定大地的根基。

为沧海定出范围，使水不越过界限，奠定大地的根基。

设定沧海的界限，使海水不得越过祂定的范围，为大地奠定根基的时候，

他为海洋定出界限，海水不能越过他的命令，他又划定大地的根基；

他为海洋设立界限，使众水不能违背他的吩咐；他立定了大地的根基——

為滄海定出界限，使水不越過他的命令，立定大地的根基。

為滄海定出範圍，使水不越過界限，奠定大地的根基。

為滄海定出範圍，使水不越過界限，奠定大地的根基。

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，

他為海洋定出界限，海水不能越過他的命令，他又劃定大地的根基；

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；

他為海洋設立界限，使眾水不能違背他的吩咐；他立定了大地的根基——

定海之界、使水不違其命、建立大地之基、

命海水勿越其限、定地維不失其界、

為海定限、使水不越岸、並立大地之根基、

when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.

It was when he set limits for the sea so that the waters had to obey his command. When the Lord marked out the foundations of the earth, I was there.

when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,

I was there when he set the limits of the seas, so they would not spread beyond their boundaries. And when he marked off the earth’s foundations,

when he set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate his command, when he laid out the foundations of the earth.

When He set a boundary for the sea So that the water would not violate His command, When He marked out the foundations of the earth;

When he gave to the sea its bound, That the waters should not transgress his commandment, When he marked out the foundations of the earth;

when He set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate His command, when He laid out the foundations of the earth.

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

when he gave the sea his decree that the waters should not pass over his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,

when he gave to the sea its boundary, that the waters should not violate his commandment, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,

You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, That they may not return to cover the earth.

Then God said,“ Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

You who laid the foundations of the earth, So that it should not be moved forever,

Do you not fear Me?’ says the Lord.‘ Will you not tremble at My presence, Who have placed the sand as the 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.

“ Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding.Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it?To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone,When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?“ Or who shut in the sea with doors, When it burst forth and issued from the womb;When I made the clouds its garment, And thick darkness its swaddling band;When I fixed My limit for it, And set bars and doors;When I said,‘ This far you may come, but no farther, And here your proud waves must stop!’

He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deep in storehouses.
