The Lord Speaks

38 Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind.(A) He said:

2 Who is this who obscures my counsel
with ignorant words?(B)
3 Get ready to answer me like a man;
when I question(C) you, you will inform me.
4 Where were you when I established(D) the earth?
Tell me, if you have[a] understanding.
5 Who fixed its dimensions? Certainly you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
