Job 38:4-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 38
4
Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell
Me,
if you have understanding,
5
Who set its measurements? Since you know.
Or who stretched the measuring line over it?
6
On what were its bases sunk?
Or who laid its cornerstone,
7
When the morning stars sang together
And all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8
'Or
who
enclosed the sea with doors
When it went out from the womb, bursting forth;
9
When I made a cloud its garment,
And thick darkness its swaddling bands,
10
And I placed boundaries on it
And set a bolt and doors,
11
And I said, ‘As far as this point you shall come, but no farther;
And here your proud waves shall stop’?
12
'Have you ever in your life commanded the morning,
And
made the dawn know its place,
13
So that it would take hold of the ends of the earth,
And the wicked would be shaken off from it?
14
It is changed like clay
under
the seal;
And they stand out like a garment.
15
Their light is withheld from the wicked,
And the uplifted arm is broken.
16
'Have you entered the springs of the sea,
And walked in the depth of the ocean?
King James Version
Chapter 38
4
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
5
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
6
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
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 brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
9
When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
10
And brake up for it my decreed place, 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; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
13
That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14
It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
15
And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.
16
Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 38
4
Where were you when I established the earth?
Tell me, if you have understanding.
5
Who fixed its dimensions? Certainly you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6
What supports its foundations?
Or who laid its cornerstone
7
while the morning stars sang together
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8
Who enclosed the sea behind doors
when it burst from the womb,
9
when I made the clouds its garment
and total darkness its blanket,
10
when I determined its boundaries
and put its bars and doors in place,
11
when I declared: "You may come this far, but no farther;
your proud waves stop here"?
12
Have you ever in your life commanded the morning
or assigned the dawn its place,
13
so it may seize the edges of the earth
and shake the wicked out of it?
14
The earth is changed as clay is by a seal;
its hills stand out like the folds of a garment.
15
Light is withheld from the wicked,
and the arm raised in violence is broken.
16
Have you traveled to the sources of the sea
or walked in the depths of the oceans?
New Living Translation
Chapter 38
4
'Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell me, if you know so much.
5
Who determined its dimensions
and stretched out the surveying line?
6
What supports its foundations,
and who laid its cornerstone
7
as the morning stars sang together
and all the angels shouted for joy?
8
'Who kept the sea inside its boundaries
as it burst from the womb,
9
and as I clothed it with clouds
and wrapped it in thick darkness?
10
For I locked it behind barred gates,
limiting its shores.
11
I said, ‘This far and no farther will you come.
Here your proud waves must stop!’
12
'Have you ever commanded the morning to appear
and caused the dawn to rise in the east?
13
Have you made daylight spread to the ends of the earth,
to bring an end to the night’s wickedness?
14
As the light approaches,
the earth takes shape like clay pressed beneath a seal;
it is robed in brilliant colors.
15
The light disturbs the wicked
and stops the arm that is raised in violence.
16
'Have you explored the springs from which the seas come?
Have you explored their depths?
English Standard Version
Chapter 38
4
"Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell me, if you have understanding.
5
Who determined its measurements — surely you know!
Or who stretched the line upon it?
6
On what were its bases sunk,
or who laid its cornerstone,
7
when the morning stars sang together
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8
"Or who shut in the sea with doors
when it burst out from the womb,
9
when I made clouds its garment
and thick darkness its swaddling band,
10
and prescribed limits for it
and set bars and doors,
11
and said, ‘Thus far shall you come, and no farther,
and here shall your proud waves be stayed’?
12
"Have you commanded the morning since your days began,
and caused the dawn to know its place,
13
that it might take hold of the skirts of the earth,
and the wicked be shaken out of it?
14
It is changed like clay under the seal,
and its features stand out like a garment.
15
From the wicked their light is withheld,
and their uplifted arm is broken.
16
"Have you entered into the springs of the sea,
or walked in the recesses of the deep?
New International Version
Chapter 38
4
"Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5
Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6
On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone—
7
while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels shouted for joy?
8
"Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9
when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10
when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11
when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt’?
12
"Have you ever given orders to the morning,
or shown the dawn its place,
13
that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked out of it?
14
The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;
its features stand out like those of a garment.
15
The wicked are denied their light,
and their upraised arm is broken.
16
"Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea
or walked in the recesses of the deep?
New King James Version
Chapter 38
4
“Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell
Me,
if you have understanding.
5
Who determined its measurements?
Surely you know!
Or who stretched the line upon it?
6
To what were its foundations fastened?

7
When the morning stars sang together,

8
“Or
who
shut in the sea with doors,
When it burst forth
and
issued from the womb;
9
When I made the clouds its garment,
And thick darkness its swaddling band;
10
When I fixed My limit for it,
And set bars and doors;
11
When I said,
‘This far you may come, but no farther,
And here your proud waves must stop!’
12
“Have you commanded the morning since your days
began,
And
caused the dawn 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 takes on form like clay
under
a seal,
And stands out like a garment.
15
From the wicked their light is withheld,
And the upraised arm is broken.
16
“Have you entered the springs of the sea?
Or have you walked in search of the depths?
