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?
 

5:22 bound of the sea. This was a divine reminder of the Noahic covenant, assuring all descendants of Noah (including the Israelites) that there would never be another global flood (Genesis 9:11; see also Job 38:8-11; Psalm 104:9; Isaiah 54:9).
