Verse
Job - ch 38 v 1 - 20
- Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said :
- Who is this that wrappeth up sentences in unskillful words?
- Gird up thy loins like a man : I will ask thee, and answer thou me.
- Where wast thou when I laid up the foundations of the earth ? tell me if thou hast understanding.
- Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
- Upon what are its bases grounded? or who laid the corner stone thereof,
- When the morning stars praised me together, and all the sons of God made a joyful melody?
- Who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke forth as issuing out of the womb :
- when I made a cloud the garment thereof, and wrapped it in a mist as in swaddling bands?
- I set my bounds around it, and made it bars and doors :
- And I said : Hitherto thou shalt come, and shalt go no further, and here thou shalt break thy swelling waves.
- Didst thou since thy birth command the morning, and shew the dawning of the day its place?
- And didst thou hold the extremities of the earth shaking them, and hast thou shaken the ungodly out of it?
- The seal shall be restored as clay, and shall stand as a garment :
- From the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the high arm shall be broken.
- Hast thou entered into the depths of the sea, and walked in the lowest parts of the deep?
- Have the gates of death been opened to thee, and hast thou seen the darksome doors?
- Hast thou considered the breadth of the earth? tell me, if thou knowest all things?
- Where is the way where light dwelleth, and where is the place of darkness :
- That thou mayst bring every thing to its own bounds, and understand the paths of the house thereof.
