“Is not God high in the heavens?
See the highest stars, how lofty they are!
But you say, ‘What does God know?
Can he judge through the deep darkness?
Thick clouds veil him, so that he does not see,
and he walks on the vault of heaven.’

“Is not God in the heights of heaven?
And see how lofty are the highest stars!
Yet you say, ‘What does God know?
Does he judge through such darkness?
Thick clouds veil him, so he does not see us
as he goes about in the vaulted heavens.’

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Isn’t God as high as the heavens?
And look at the highest stars—how lofty they are!
Yet you say, “What does God know?
Can he judge through total darkness?
Clouds veil him so that he cannot see,
as he walks on the circle of the sky.”

NLTNew Living Translation
“God is so great—higher than the heavens,
higher than the farthest stars.
But you reply, ‘That’s why God can’t see what I am doing!
How can he judge through the thick darkness?
For thick clouds swirl about him, and he cannot see us.
He is way up there, walking on the vault of heaven.’

“Is not God in the height of the heavens?
But see how lofty are the highest stars.
And you ask, ‘What does God know?
Can he judge through deep gloom?
Thick clouds are a covering for him, so that he does not see;
and he walks about on the dome of heaven.’

KJV 1900King James Version
Is not God in the height of heaven?
And behold the height of the stars, how high they are!
And thou sayest, How doth God know?
Can he judge through the dark cloud?
Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not;
And he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
