Job 38:1-7

New American Standard Bible

² “Who is this who ^(B)darkens the divine plan
By words without knowledge?
³ Now ^[a](C)tighten the belt on your waist like a man,
And ^(D)I shall ask you, and you inform Me!
⁴ Where were you ^(E)when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell Me, if you ^[b]have understanding,
⁵ Who set its ^(F)measurements? Since you know.
Or who stretched the measuring line over it?
⁶ On what ^(G)were its bases sunk?
Or who laid its cornerstone,
⁷ When the morning stars sang together
And all the ^(H)sons of God shouted for joy?
