8Who enclosed the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9when I made the clouds its garment
and thick darkness its blanket,
10when I fixed its boundaries
and set in place its bars and doors,
11and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther;
here your proud waves must stop’?
12In your days, have you commanded the morning
or assigned the dawn its place,
13that it might spread to the ends of the earth
and shake the wicked out of it?
— Job 38:8-13
