Job 38:4-11

4Were you with me when I made the world? If you think you are so clever, tell me all about it!

5It was me who decided the size of the world. You surely must know that! I measured it as I made it.

6Tell me how I fixed the foundations of the earth. Who made it stay in its right place? I did!

7At the dawn of that day, the stars sang together. They sang for joy with all the angels.

8When the sea poured out of the ground, I decided where its borders should be. I kept the water in its right place.

9I caused the clouds to come over the sea. I covered it with complete darkness.

10I put a border around the sea. I locked it in its place.

11I said to the sea, “This is as far as you can come. You may come no further. Your powerful waves must stop there!”
