King James Version

Job 38:36-41

36Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart?

37Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,1

38When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together?2

39Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions,3

40When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait?

41Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.
