Context of Job 9:10
8Who alone stretches out the heavens And tramples down the waves of the sea; 9Who made [the constellations] the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, And the [vast starry] spaces of the south; Who does great things, [beyond understanding,] unfathomable, Yes, marvelous and wondrous things without number. 11Behold, He passes by me, and I do not see Him; He moves past me, but I do not perceive Him. 12Behold, He snatches away; who can restrain or turn Him back? Who will say to Him, ‘What are You doing?’
