New King James Version

Job 38:8-14 New King James Version (NKJV)

8. “Or who shut in the sea with doors,When it burst forth and issued from the womb;

9. When I made the clouds its garment,And thick darkness its swaddling band;

10. When I fixed My limit for it,And set bars and doors;

11. When I said,‘This far you may come, but no farther,And here your proud waves must stop!’

12. “Have you commanded the morning since your days began,And caused the dawn to know its place,

13. That it might take hold of the ends of the earth,And the wicked be shaken out of it?

14. It takes on form like clay under a seal,And stands out like a garment.
