Job 11:6-8
International Standard Version

6 and disclose his wise secrets?
After all, there’s so much more[a] to understanding.
    So be aware that God will exact from you
        less than your sin deserves.”

God’s Wisdom is Unfathomable

7 “Can you search through God’s complex things?
    Can you uncover the limits of the Almighty?
8 These things are higher than the heavens,
    so what can you do?
They are deeper than Sheol,[b]
    so what can you know?
