dourh@Job:38:1 @ Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said:

dourh@Job:38:2 @ Who is this that wrappeth up sentences in unskillful words?

dourh@Job:38:3 @ Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and answer thou me.

dourh@Job:38:4 @ Where wast thou when I laid up the foundations of the earth? tell me if thou hast understanding.

dourh@Job:38:5 @ Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

dourh@Job:38:6 @ Upon what are its bases grounded? or who laid the corner stone thereof,

dourh@Job:38:7 @ When the morning stars praised me together, and all the sons of God made a joyful melody?

dourh@Job:38:8 @ Who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke forth as issuing out of the womb:

dourh@Job:38:9 @ when I made a cloud the garment thereof, and wrapped it in a mist as in swaddling bands?

dourh@Job:38:10 @ I set my bounds around it, and made it bars and doors:

dourh@Job:38:11 @ And I said: Hitherto thou shalt come, and shalt go no further, and here thou shalt break thy swelling waves.

dourh@Job:38:12 @ Didst thou since thy birth command the morning, and shew the dawning of the day its place?

dourh@Job:38:13 @ And didst thou hold the extremities of the earth shaking them, and hast thou shaken the ungodly out of it?

dourh@Job:38:14 @ The seal shall be restored as clay, and shall stand as a garment:

dourh@Job:38:15 @ From the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the high arm shall be broken.

dourh@Job:38:16 @ Hast thou entered into the depths of the sea, and walked in the lowest parts of the deep?

dourh@Job:38:17 @ Have the gates of death been opened to thee, and hast thou seen the darksome doors?

dourh@Job:38:18 @ Hast thou considered the breadth of the earth? tell me, if thou knowest all things?

dourh@Job:38:19 @ Where is the way where light dwelleth, and where is the place of darkness:

dourh@Job:38:20 @ That thou mayst bring every thing to its own bounds, and understand the paths of the house thereof.

dourh@Job:38:21 @ Didst thou know then that thou shouldst be born? and didst thou know the number of thy days?

dourh@Job:38:22 @ Hast thou entered into the storehouses of the snow, or has thou beheld the treasures of the hail:

dourh@Job:38:23 @ Which I have prepared for the time of the enemy, against the day of battle and war?

dourh@Job:38:24 @ By what way is the light spread, and heat divided upon the earth?

dourh@Job:38:25 @ Who gave a course to violent showers, or a way for noisy thunder:

dourh@Job:38:26 @ That it should rain on the earth without man in the wilderness, where no mortal dwelleth:

dourh@Job:38:27 @ That it should fill the desert and desolate land, and should bring forth green grass?

dourh@Job:38:28 @ Who is the father of rain? or who begot the drops of dew?

dourh@Job:38:29 @ Out of whose womb came the ice; and the frost from heaven who hath gendered it?

dourh@Job:38:30 @ The waters are hardened like a stone, and the surface of the deep is congealed.

dourh@Job:38:31 @ Shalt thou be able to join together the shining stars the Pleiades, or canst thou stop the turning about of Arcturus?

dourh@Job:38:32 @ Canst thou bring forth the day star in its time, and make the evening star to rise upon the children of the earth?

dourh@Job:38:33 @ Dost thou know the order of heaven, and canst thou set down the reason thereof on the earth?

dourh@Job:38:34 @ Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that an abundance of waters may cover thee?

dourh@Job:38:35 @ Canst thou send lightnings, and will they go, and will they return and say to thee: Here we are?

dourh@Job:38:36 @ Who hath put wisdom in the heart of man? or who gave the cock understanding?

dourh@Job:38:37 @ Who can declare the order of the heavens, or who can make the harmony of heaven to sleep?

dourh@Job:38:38 @ When was the dust poured on the earth, and the clods fastened together?

dourh@Job:38:39 @ Wilt thou take the prey for the lioness, and satisfy the appetite of her whelps,

dourh@Job:38:40 @ When they couch in the dens and lie in wait in holes?

dourh@Job:38:41 @ Who provideth food for the raven, when her young ones cry to God, wandering about, because they have no meat?
