Job 38:12 — Meaning and Application

And brake up for it my decreed {place}, and set bars and doors, {brake...: or, established my decree upon it}

And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed? {thy...: Heb. the pride of thy waves}

Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; {and} caused the dayspring to know his place;

That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it? {ends: Heb. wings}

It is turned as clay {to} the seal; and they stand as a garment.
