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,
You set a boundary that they may not pass, so that they might not again cover the earth.
Do you not fear me? declares the LORD; Do you not tremble before me? I placed the sand as the boundary for the sea, a perpetual barrier that it cannot pass; though the waves toss, they cannot prevail; though they roar, they cannot pass over it.
He set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved.
He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; he puts the deeps in storehouses.
He has inscribed a circle on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.
when he made firm the skies above, when he established[4] the fountains of the deep,
to him who by understanding made the heavens, for his steadfast love endures forever;
The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens;
Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."
