5 Who set its measurements – if you know – or who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its bases set,or who laid its cornerstone –
7 when the morning stars sang in chorus,and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8 “Who shut up the sea with doorswhen it burst forth, coming out of the womb,
9 when I made the storm clouds its garment,and thick darkness its swaddling band,
10 when I prescribed its limits,and set in place its bolts and doors,
11 when I said, ‘To here you may come and no farther,here your proud waves will be confined’?
