Part 34

18:037:023 Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

18:037:024 Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.

18:038:001 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

18:038:002 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?

18:038:003 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

18:038:004 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

18:038:005 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

18:038:006 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

18:038:007 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

18:038:008 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

18:038:009 When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

18:038:010 And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

18:038:011 And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?

18:038:012 Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;

18:038:013 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

18:038:014 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.

18:038:015 And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.

18:038:016 Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?

18:038:017 Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?

18:038:018 Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

18:038:019 Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

18:038:020 That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

18:038:021 Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?

18:038:022 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,

18:038:023 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

18:038:024 By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?

18:038:025 Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;

18:038:026 To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
