5 Who marked off how big it should be?Surely you know!
6 What were the earth’s foundations set on?Or who put its cornerstone in place?
7 Who did all this while the morning stars sang together?Who did this while the angels shouted with joy?
8 “Who shut the doors to keep the sea inwhen it broke through and was born?
9 This was when I made the clouds like a coat for the sea.And I wrapped the sea in dark clouds.
10 It was when I put limits on the sea.And I put its doors and bars in place.
11 It was when I said to the sea, ‘You may come this far, but no farther.This is where your proud waves must stop.’
