THE LORD SPEAKS

38 Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind.n He said:

2 Who is this who obscures my counsel

with ignorant words?o

3 Get ready to answer me like a man;

when I questionp you, you will inform me.

4 Where were you when I establishedq the earth?

Tell me, if you haveA understanding.

5 Who fixed its dimensions? Certainly you know!

Who stretched a measuring line across it?
