Job 38:10-23 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

10. And prescribed for it my decree, and set bars and doors,

11. And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further; and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?

12. Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days began, and caused the dayspring to know its place;

13. That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?

14. It is changed as clay under the seal; and all things stand forth as a garment:

15. And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm is broken.

16. Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the recesses of the deep?

17. Have the gates of death been revealed unto thee? or hast thou seen the gates of the shadow of death?

18. Hast thou comprehended the breadth of the earth? declare, if thou knowest it all.

19. Where is the way to the dwelling of light, and as for darkness, where is the place thereof;

20. That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest discern the paths to the house thereof?

21. Doubtless, thou knowest, for thou wast then born, and the number of thy days is great!

22. Hast thou entered the treasuries of the snow, or hast thou seen the treasuries of the hail,

23. Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?
