Job 36:22-26
New English Translation
22 Indeed, God is exalted in his power;
who is a teacher[a] like him?
23 Who has prescribed his ways for him?
Or said to him, ‘You have done what is wicked’?
24 Remember to extol[b] his work,
which people have praised in song.
25 All humanity has seen it;
people gaze on it from afar.
The Work and Wisdom of God
26 “Yes, God is great—beyond our knowledge![c]
The number of his years is unsearchable.
