and said, ‘You may come here, but no further. Your proud waves shall be stopped here’?
and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?
And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further; And here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
And said, So far you may come, and no farther; and here the pride of your waves will be stopped?

Matthew Henry · Verses 4–11
For the humbling of Job, God here shows him his ignorance, even concerning the earth and the sea. As we cannot find fault with God's work, so we need not fear concerning it. The works of his providence, as well as the work of creation, never can be broken; and the work of redemption is no less firm, of which Christ himself is both the Foundation and the Corner-stone. The church stands as firm as the earth.
