What does Jeremiah 5:22 mean?

Don't you respect me? Don't you tremble in my presence? I'm the one who set the sand as a boundary for the sea, a line it can't cross. The waves crash, but they can't get past it. They roar, but they're held back. Jeremiah 5:22 - Modern Text Bible

(God reminds them of his power as Creator, controlling even the sea, and wonders why they don't fear or respect him.)
