or who laid its cornerstone,
7 when the morning stars ^bsang together
and all ^cthe sons of God ^dshouted for joy?
8 “Or who ^eshut in the sea with doors
when it burst out from the womb,
9 when I made clouds its garment

and set bars and doors,
11 and said, ‘Thus far shall you come, and no farther,
and here shall your ^hproud waves be stayed’?
