1. Then Job answered the Lord:
2. “I know that you can do all thingsand that no plan of yours can be ruined.
3. You asked, ‘Who is this that made my purpose unclear by saying things that are not true?’Surely I spoke of things I did not understand;I talked of things too wonderful for me to know.
4. You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak.I will ask you questions,and you must answer me.’
5. My ears had heard of you before,but now my eyes have seen you.
