²⁴ They see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

⁸ Or where were you when the sea came to birth, pushing out from its secret place;

⁹ When I made the cloud its robe, and put thick clouds as bands round it,

¹⁰ Ordering a fixed limit for it, with locks and doors;

¹¹ And said, So far you may come, and no farther; and here the pride of your waves will be stopped?

⁵ The sea is his, and he made it; and the dry land was formed by his hands.

²⁴ O Lord, how great is the number of your works! in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of the things you have made.

²⁵ There is the great, wide sea, where there are living things, great and small, more than may be numbered.

²⁶ There go the ships; there is that great beast, which you have made as a plaything.

²⁷ All of them are waiting for you, to give them their food in its time.
