ESV, NIV, KJV · TruthBound Bible
ESV
Do you not fear me? declares the Lord . Do you not tremble before me ? I placed the sand as the boundary for the sea , a perpetual barrier that it cannot pass ; though the waves toss , they cannot prevail ; though they roar , they cannot pass over it.
NIV
Should you not fear me?” declares the Lord. “Should you not tremble in my presence? I made the sand a boundary for the sea, an everlasting barrier it cannot cross. The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail; they may roar, but they cannot cross it.
KJV
Fear ye not me? saith the Lord : will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
