< Job 38 >

1 And he answered Yahweh Job (from - *QK) (the tempest *Qk) and he said. 2 Who? this - [is] making dark counsel by words not knowledge. 3 Gird up please like a man loins your and I will ask you and make known to me. 4 Where? were you when founded I [the] earth tell if you know understanding. 5 Who? did he appoint measurements its for you know or who? did he stretch out on it a measuring-line. 6 On what? bases its were they sunk or who? did he lay [the] stone of corner its. 7 When sang together [the] stars of morning and they shouted all [the] sons of God. 8 And he shut off with doors [the] sea when burst forth it from [the] womb it came forth. 9 When made I cloud[s] clothing its and thick darkness swaddling-band its. 10 And I broke on it boundary my and I set in place a bar and doors. 11 And I said to here you will come and not you will add and here someone will fix in [the] pride of waves your. 12 ¿ From days your have you commanded morning (you caused to know the dawn *QK) place its. 13 To take hold on [the] corners of the earth so they may be shaken wicked [people] from it. 14 It is changed like [the] clay of a seal so they may stand forth like clothing. 15 So it may be withheld from wicked [people] light their and an arm uplifted it is broken. 16 ¿ Have you gone to [the] springs of [the] sea and in [the] depth of [the] deep have you walked about? 17 ¿ Have they been revealed to you [the] gates of death and [the] gates of deep darkness have you seen? 18 Have you shown yourself attentive? to [the] broad spaces of [the] earth tell if you know all of it. 19 Where? this [is] the way [where] it dwells light and darkness where? this [is] place its. 20 That you will take it to territory its and that you will discern [the] paths of house its. 21 You know for then you were born and [the] number of days your [is] many. 22 ¿ Have you gone into [the] storehouses of snow and [the] storehouses of hail have you seen? 23 Which I have kept back for [the] time of distress for [the] day of battle and warfare. 24 Where? this [is] the way [where] it is divided light [where] it scatters [the] east wind over [the] earth. 25 Who? does he divide for the flood a channel and a path for [the] storm of thunder claps. 26 To send rain on a land not anyone a wilderness [which] not anyone [is] in it. 27 To satisfy devastation and desolation and to cause to sprout a going forth of vegetation. 28 ¿ [is] there For the rain a father or who? does he father [the] drops of dew. 29 From [the] womb of whom? does it come forth the ice and [the] frost of heaven who? does he give birth to it. 30 Like stone waters they become hard and [the] surface of [the] deep they freeze. 31 ¿ Will you bind on [the] bonds of Pleiades or? [the] chains of Orion will you loosen. 32 ¿ Will you lead out [the] constellations at appropriate time its and [the] Bear with young ones its will you guide? them. 33 ¿ Do you know [the] statutes of [the] heavens or? do you appoint rule its over the earth. 34 ¿ Will you lift up to the cloud[s] voice your and an abundance of water will you cover? yourself. 35 ¿ Will you send forth lightning so they may go and they may say to you here [are] we. 36 Who? has he put in the inner parts wisdom or who? has he given to the heart understanding. 37 Who? will he count [the] clouds by wisdom and [the] waterskins of heaven who? will he make to lie down. 38 When flows [the] dust into lump and [the] clods they are joined together. 39 ¿ Will you hunt for a lion prey and [the] life of young lions will you fill? 40 If they will crouch in dens they will remain in thicket for lying-in-wait. 41 Who? does he prepare for the raven food-supply its if (young ones its *QK) to God they will cry for help they will wander about for not food.
