Job 38:5-16 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

5. Who placed its measures--if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched out upon it a line?

6. On what have its sockets been sunk? Or who hath cast its corner-stone?

7. In the singing together of stars of morning, And all sons of God shout for joy,

8. And He shutteth up with doors the sea, In its coming forth, from the womb it goeth out.

9. In My making a cloud its clothing, And thick darkness its swaddling band,

10. And I measure over it My statute, And place bar and doors,

11. And say, `Hitherto come thou, and add not, And a command is placed On the pride of thy billows.'

12. Hast thou commanded morning since thy days? Causest thou the dawn to know its place?

13. To take hold on the skirts of the earth, And the wicked are shaken out of it,

14. It turneth itself as clay of a seal And they station themselves as clothed.

15. And withheld from the wicked is their light, And the arm lifted up is broken.

16. Hast thou come in to springs of the sea? And in searching the deep Hast thou walked up and down?
