29 In His setting for the sea its limit, And the waters transgress not His command, In His decreeing the foundations of earth,

30 Then I am near Him, a workman, And I am a delight — day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times,

31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, And my delights are with the sons of men.

32 And now, ye sons, hearken to me, Yea, happy are they who keep my ways.
