1 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, |
2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? |
3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. ... |
12 Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place; |
13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it? |
14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment. |
15 And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken. |
16 Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth? |
17 Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death? |
18 Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all. |
19 Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof, |
20 That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof? |
21 Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great? |
