New Testament

Job 38:8-15 God's Word Translation (GW)

8. “Who shut the sea behind gateswhen it burst through and came out of the womb,

9. when I clothed it with cloudsand wrapped it up in dark clouds,

10. when I set a limit for itand put up bars and gates,

11. when I said, ‘You may come this far but no farther.Here your proud waves will stop’?

12. “Have you ever given orders to the morningor assigned a place for the dawn

13. so that it could grab the earth by its edgesand shake wicked people out of it?

14. The earth changes like clay stamped by a seal,and ⌊parts of it⌋ stand out like ⌊folds in⌋ clothing.

15. Wicked people are deprived of their light,and an arm raised ⌊in victory⌋ is broken.
