God Answers Job

Job 38:1-11
1
Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
2
“Who is this who obscures My counsel by words without knowledge?
3
Now brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall inform Me.
4
Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding.
5
Who fixed its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched a measuring line across it?
6
On what were its foundations set, or who laid its cornerstone,
7
while the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8
Who enclosed the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the womb,
9
when I made the clouds its garment and thick darkness its blanket,
10
when I fixed its boundaries and set in place its bars and doors,
11
and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?
