1Then JEHOVAH answered Job out of the whirlwind, 2"Who is this who darkens counsel 3Brace yourself like a man, 4"Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? 5Who determined its measures, if you know? 6Whereupon were its foundations fastened? 7when the morning stars sang together, 8"Or who shut up the sea with doors, 9when I made clouds its garment, 10marked out for it my bound, 11and said, 'Here you may come, but no further. 12"Have you commanded the morning in your days, 13that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, 14It is changed as clay under the seal, 15From the wicked, their light is withheld. 16"Have you entered into the springs of the sea? 17Have the gates of death been revealed to you? 18Have you comprehended the earth in its breadth? 19"What is the way to the dwelling of light? 20that you should take it to its bound, 21Surely you know, for you were born then, 22Have you entered the treasuries of the snow, 23which I have reserved against the time of trouble, 24By what way is the lightning distributed, 25Who has cut a channel for the flood water, 26To cause it to rain on a land where no man is; 27to satisfy the waste and desolate ground, 28Does the rain have a father? 29Out of whose womb came the ice? 30The waters become hard like stone, 31"Can you bind the cluster of the Pleiades, 32Can you lead forth the constellations in their season? 33Do you know the laws of the heavens? 34"Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, 35Can you send forth lightnings, that they may go? 36Who has put wisdom in the inward parts? 37Who can number the clouds by wisdom? 38when the dust runs into a mass, 39"Can you hunt the prey for the lioness, 40when they crouch in their dens, 41Who provides for the raven his prey,
