Job 38:10

Verse 10 of 41. The 38th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

6What were its foundations fastened on? Or who laid its cornerstone,

7when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8“Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke out of the womb,

9when I made clouds its garment, and wrapped it in thick darkness,

10marked out for it my bound, set bars and doors,

11and said, ‘You may come here, but no further. Your proud waves shall be stopped here’?

12“Have you commanded the morning in your days, and caused the dawn to know its place,

13that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and shake the wicked out of it?

14It is changed as clay under the seal, and presented as a garment.
