Bible verse
and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?
Job 38:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 38.
7 while the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8 Who enclosed the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment and thick darkness its blanket,
10 when I fixed its boundaries and set in place its bars and doors,
11 and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?
12 In your days, have you commanded the morning or assigned the dawn its place,
13 that it might spread to the ends of the earth and shake the wicked out of it?
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its hills stand out like the folds of a garment.
15 Light is withheld from the wicked, and their upraised arm is broken.
