Job 38:4-11
New International Version
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?(A)
Tell me, if you understand.(B)
5 Who marked off its dimensions?(C) Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line(D) across it?
6 On what were its footings set,(E)
or who laid its cornerstone(F)—
7 while the morning stars(G) sang together(H)
and all the angels[a](I) shouted for joy?(J)
8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors(K)
when it burst forth from the womb,(L)
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,(M)
10 when I fixed limits for it(N)
and set its doors and bars in place,(O)
11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;(P)
here is where your proud waves halt’?(Q)
