Job 38:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 Who is this who darkens counsel
with words of ignorance?
3 Gird up your loins[a] now, like a man;
I will question you, and you tell me the answers!(A)
4 Where were you when I founded the earth?
Tell me, if you have understanding.

- 38:3 Gird up your loins: prepare for combat—figuratively, be ready to defend yourself in debate.
Hiob 38:2-4
Schlachter 1951
2 Wer verfinstert da Gottes Rat
mit seinen unverständigen Reden?
3 Gürte doch deine Lenden wie ein Mann!
Ich will dich fragen, lehre mich!
4 Wo warst du, als ich den Grund der Erde legte?
Sage an, wenn du es weißt!
