Job 38:7-23 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

7. when the morning stars sang together,and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8. “Or who shut up the sea with doors,when it broke out of the womb,

9. when I made clouds its garment,and wrapped it in thick darkness,

10. marked out for it my bound,set bars and doors,

11. and said, ‘Here you may come, but no further.Here your proud waves shall be stayed?’

12. “Have you commanded the morning in your days,and caused the dawn to know its place;

13. that it might take hold of the ends of the earth,and shake the wicked out of it?

14. It is changed as clay under the seal,and presented as a garment.

15. From the wicked, their light is withheld.The high arm is broken.

16. “Have you entered into the springs of the sea?Or have you walked in the recesses of the deep?

17. Have the gates of death been revealed to you?Or have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?

18. Have you comprehended the earth in its width?Declare, if you know it all.

19. “What is the way to the dwelling of light?As for darkness, where is its place,

20. that you should take it to its bound,that you should discern the paths to its house?

21. Surely you know, for you were born then,and the number of your days is great!

22. Have you entered the treasuries of the snow,or have you seen the treasures of the hail,

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