Job 38:16-21

Common English Bible

¹⁶ Have you gone to the sea’s sources,
    walked in the chamber of the deep?
¹⁷ Have death’s gates been revealed to you;
    can you see the gates of deep darkness?
¹⁸ Have you surveyed earth’s expanses?
    Tell me if you know everything about it.
¹⁹ Where’s the road to the place where light dwells;
        darkness, where’s it located?
²⁰     Can you take it to its territory;
        do you know the paths to its house?
²¹ You know, for you were born then;
    you have lived such a long time!^[a]
