New Testament

Job 38:14-27 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

14. At dawn the earth changes like clay being pressed by a seal.The hills and valleys stand out like folds in a coat.

15. Light is not given to evil people.Their arm is raised to do harm, but it is broken.

16. “Have you ever gone to where the sea begins?Or have you walked in the valleys under the sea?

17. Have the gates of death been opened to you?Or have you seen the gates of the deep darkness?

18. Do you understand the great width of the earth?Tell me, if you know all these things.

19. “What is the path to light’s home?And where does darkness live?

20. Can you take them to their places?Do you know the way to their homes?

21. Surely you know, if you were already born when all this happened!Have you lived that many years?

22. “Have you ever gone into the storehouse where snow is kept?Or have you seen the storehouses for hail?

23. I save the snow and hail for times of trouble.I save them for days of war and battle.

24. How do you get to the place where light comes from?Or where is the place from which the east winds are scattered over the earth?

25. Who cuts a waterway for the heavy rains?And who sets a path for the thunderstorm to follow?

26. Who waters the land where no one lives?Who waters the desert that has no one in it?

27. Who sends rain to satisfy the empty landso the grass begins to grow?
