Job 38:4-21

4WhereH375 wast thou when I laidH3245 the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776? declareH5046, ifH518 thou hast understandingH998.

5Who determinedH7760 the measures thereof, ifH3588 thou knowest? or who stretchedH5186 the line uponH5921 it?

6Whereupon were the foundations thereof fastened? or who laidH3384 the cornerH6438 stoneH68 thereof;

7When the morningH1242 starsH3556 sangH7442 togetherH3162, and allH3605 the sonsH1121 of GodH430 shoutedH7321 for joyH7442?

8Or who shut upH3220 the seaH3220 with doorsH1817, when it brake forthH3318, as if it had issuedH3318 outH3318 of the wombH7358;

9When I madeH7760 the cloudH6051 the garmentH3830 thereof, and thickH6205 darknessH6205 a swaddlingband for it,

10And prescribedH2706 for it my decreeH2706, and setH7760 barsH1280 and doorsH1817,

11And saidH559, Hitherto shalt thou comeH935, but noH3808 furtherH3254; and hereH6311 shall thy proudH1347 wavesH1530 be stayed?

12Hast thou commandedH6680 the morningH1242 sinceH3117 thy daysH3117 began, and caused the dayspring to knowH3045 itsH3045 placeH4725;

13That it might takeH270 holdH270 of the endsH3671 of the earthH776, and the wicked be shakenH5287 outH4480 of it?

14It is changedH2015 as clay under the sealH2368; and all things standH3320 forthH3320 as a garmentH3830:

15And from the wicked their lightH216 is withholden, and the highH7311 armH2220 is brokenH7665.

16Hast thou enteredH935 intoH935 the springsH8415 of the seaH3220? or hast thou walkedH1980 in the recessesH2714 of the deepH8415?

17Have the gatesH8179 of deathH4194 been revealedH1540 unto thee? or hast thou seenH7200 the gatesH8179 of the shadowH6757 of deathH4194?

18Hast thou comprehended the breadth of the earthH776? declareH5046, ifH518 thou knowest it allH3605.

19WhereH335 is the wayH1870 to the dwellingH7931 of lightH216, and as for darknessH2822, whereH335 is the placeH4725 thereof;

20That thou shouldest takeH3947 it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest discernH995 the pathsH5410 to the houseH1004 thereof?

21Doubtless, thou knowest, for thou wast then bornH3205, and the numberH4557 of thy daysH3117 is greatH7227!
