38Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
²Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
³Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
⁴Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
⁵Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
⁶Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
⁷When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
⁸Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
⁹When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
¹⁰And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
¹¹And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
