Job 38:16-21
New American Standard Bible
16 “Have you entered (A)the springs of the sea,
And walked [a]in the depth of the ocean?
17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you,
And have you seen the gates of (B)deep darkness?
18 Have you understood the [b]expanse of (C)the earth?
Tell Me, if you know all this.
19 “Where is the way to the dwelling of light?
And darkness, where is its place,
20 That you would take it to (D)its territory,
And discern the paths to its [c]home?
21 You know, for (E)you were born then,
And the number of your days is great!
Job 38:16-21
New Living Translation
16 “Have you explored the springs from which the seas come?
Have you explored their depths?
17 Do you know where the gates of death are located?
Have you seen the gates of utter gloom?
18 Do you realize the extent of the earth?
Tell me about it if you know!
19 “Where does light come from,
and where does darkness go?
20 Can you take each to its home?
Do you know how to get there?
21 But of course you know all this!
For you were born before it was all created,
and you are so very experienced!
