Job 38:4-11

4Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.1

5Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

6Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;23

7When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

9When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

10And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,4

11And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?5
