# He binds up the waters in his thick clouds
|
|
|
|
The clouds are compared to a large blanket in which God wraps the rainwater. AT: "He wraps up the water in his thick clouds"

# but the clouds are not torn under them
|
|
|
|
This can be stated actively. The word "them" refers to the waters. AT: "but the weight of the waters does not tear the clouds" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
