Job 38:8-11

^{Tools
8}

“Or who ^(A)enclosed the sea with doors
When, bursting forth, it went out from the womb;

^{Tools
9}

When I made a cloud its garment
And thick darkness its swaddling band,

^{Tools
10}

And I ^(a)^(B)placed boundaries on it
And set a bolt and doors,

^{Tools
11}

And I said, ‘Thus far you shall come, but no farther;
And here shall your proud waves stop’?
