Then the LORDH3068 answeredH6030 JobH347 out of the whirlwindH5591, and saidH559,
Who is this that darkenethH2821 counselH6098 by wordsH4405 without knowledgeH1847?
Gird upH247 now thy loinsH2504 like a manH1397; for I will demandH7592 of thee, and answerH3045 thou me. {answer…: Heb. make me know}
WhereH375 wast thou when I laid the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776? declareH5046, if thou hastH3045 understandingH998. {hast…: Heb. knowest understanding}
Who hath laidH7760 the measuresH4461 thereof, if thou knowestH3045? or who hath stretchedH5186 the lineH6957 upon it?
Whereupon are the foundationsH134 thereof fastenedH2883? or who laidH3384 the cornerH6438 stoneH68 thereof; {foundations: Heb. sockets} {fastened: Heb. made to sink?}
When the morningH1242 starsH3556 sangH7442 togetherH3162, and all the sonsH1121 of GodH430 shoutedH7321 for joy?
Or who shut upH5526 the seaH3220 with doorsH1817, when it brake forthH1518, as if it had issued outH3318 of the wombH7358?
When I madeH7760 the cloudH6051 the garmentH3830 thereof, and thick darknessH6205 a swaddlingbandH2854 for it,
And brake upH7665 for it my decreedH2706 place, and setH7760 barsH1280 and doorsH1817, {brake…: or, established my decree upon it}
And saidH559, HithertoH5704+H6311 shalt thou comeH935, but no furtherH3254: and here shall thy proudH1347 wavesH1530 be stayedH7896? {thy…: Heb. the pride of thy waves}
Hast thou commandedH6680 the morningH1242 since thy daysH3117; and caused the dayspringH7837 to knowH3045 his placeH4725;
That it might take holdH270 of the endsH3671 of the earthH776, that the wickedH7563 might be shaken outH5287 of it? {ends: Heb. wings}
It is turnedH2015 as clayH2563 to the sealH2368; and they standH3320 as a garmentH3830.
And from the wickedH7563 their lightH216 is withholdenH4513, and the highH7311 armH2220 shall be brokenH7665.
Hast thou enteredH935 into the springsH5033 of the seaH3220? or hast thou walkedH1980 in the searchH2714 of the depthH8415?
Have the gatesH8179 of deathH4194 been openedH1540 unto thee? or hast thou seenH7200 the doorsH8179 of the shadow of deathH6757?
Hast thou perceivedH995 the breadthH7338 of the earthH776? declareH5046 if thou knowestH3045 it all.
Where is the wayH1870 where lightH216 dwellethH7931? and as for darknessH2822, where is the placeH4725 thereof,
That thou shouldest takeH3947 it to the boundH1366 thereof, and that thou shouldest knowH995 the pathsH5410 to the houseH1004 thereof? {to the bound: or, at, etc}
KnowestH3045 thou it, because thou wast then bornH3205? or because the numberH4557 of thy daysH3117 is greatH7227?
Hast thou enteredH935 into the treasuresH214 of the snowH7950? or hast thou seenH7200 the treasuresH214 of the hailH1259,
Which I have reservedH2820 against the timeH6256 of troubleH6862, against the dayH3117 of battleH7128 and warH4421?
By whatH335 wayH1870 is the lightH216 partedH2505, which scatterethH6327 the east windH6921 upon the earthH776?
Who hath dividedH6385 a watercourseH8585 for the overflowing of watersH7858, or a wayH1870 for the lightningH2385 of thunderH6963;
To cause it to rainH4305 on the earthH776, where no manH376 is; on the wildernessH4057, wherein there is no manH120;
To satisfyH7646 the desolateH7722 and wasteH4875 ground; and to cause the budH4161 of the tender herbH1877 to spring forthH6779?
HathH3426 the rainH4306 a fatherH1? or who hath begottenH3205 the dropsH96 of dewH2919?
Out of whose wombH990 cameH3318 the iceH7140? and the hoary frostH3713 of heavenH8064, who hath genderedH3205 it?
The watersH4325 are hidH2244 as with a stoneH68, and the faceH6440 of the deepH8415 is frozenH3920. {is…: Heb. is taken}
Canst thou bindH7194 the sweet influencesH4575 of PleiadesH3598, or looseH6605 the bandsH4189 of OrionH3685? {Pleiades: or, the seven stars: Heb. Cimah} {Orion: Heb. Cesil?}
Canst thou bring forthH3318 MazzarothH4216 in his seasonH6256? or canst thou guideH5148 ArcturusH5906 with his sonsH1121? {Mazzaroth: or, the twelve signs} {guide: Heb. guide them}
KnowestH3045 thou the ordinancesH2708 of heavenH8064? canst thou setH7760 the dominionH4896 thereof in the earthH776?
Canst thou lift upH7311 thy voiceH6963 to the cloudsH5645, that abundanceH8229 of watersH4325 may coverH3680 thee?
Canst thou sendH7971 lightningsH1300, that they may goH3212, and sayH559 unto thee, Here we are? {Here…: Heb. Behold us?}
Who hath putH7896 wisdomH2451 in the inward partsH2910? or who hath givenH5414 understandingH998 to the heartH7907?
Who can numberH5608 the cloudsH7834 in wisdomH2451? or who can stayH7901 the bottlesH5035 of heavenH8064, {stay: Heb. cause to lie down}
When the dustH6083 growethH3332 into hardnessH4165, and the clodsH7263 cleave fast togetherH1692? {groweth…: or, is turned into mire: Heb. is poured}
Wilt thou huntH6679 the preyH2964 for the lionH3833? or fillH4390 the appetiteH2416 of the young lionsH3715, {the appetite: Heb. the life}
When they couchH7817 in their densH4585, and abideH3427 in the covertH5521 toH3926 lie in waitH695?
Who providethH3559 for the ravenH6158 his foodH6718? when his young onesH3206 cryH7768 unto GodH410, they wanderH8582 for lackH1097 of meatH400.

They meetH6298 with darknessH2822 in the daytimeH3119, and gropeH4959 in the noondayH6672 as in the nightH3915. {meet…: or, run into}
BreakH7665 thou the armH2220 of the wickedH7563 and the evilH7451 man: seek outH1875 his wickednessH7562 till thou findH4672 noneH1077.
Yea, the lightH216 of the wickedH7563 shall be put outH1846, and the sparkH7632 of his fireH784 shall not shineH5050.
For the armsH2220 of the wickedH7563 shall be brokenH7665: but the LORDH3068 upholdethH5564 the righteousH6662.
He shall be drivenH1920 from lightH216 into darknessH2822, and chasedH5074 out of the worldH8398. {He…: Heb. They shall drive him}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and will breakH7665 his armsH2220, the strongH2389, and that which was brokenH7665; and I will cause the swordH2719 to fallH5307 out of his handH3027.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Stretch outH5186 thine handH3027 toward heavenH8064, that there may be darknessH2822 over the landH776 of EgyptH4714, even darknessH2822 which may be feltH4959. {even…: Heb. that one may feel darkness}
And MosesH4872 stretched forthH5186 his handH3027 toward heavenH8064; and there was a thickH653 darknessH2822 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 threeH7969 daysH3117:
They sawH7200 not oneH376 anotherH251, neither roseH6965 anyH376 from his place for threeH7969 daysH3117: but all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had lightH216 in their dwellingsH4186.
And when they came downH3381 to him, ElishaH477 prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, SmiteH5221 this peopleH1471, I pray thee, with blindnessH5575. And he smoteH5221 them with blindnessH5575 according to the wordH1697 of ElishaH477.
And they shall passH5674 through it, hardly besteadH7185 and hungryH7457: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungryH7456, they shall fretH7107 themselves, and curseH7043 their kingH4428 and their GodH430, and lookH6437 upwardH4605.
And they shall lookH5027 unto the earthH776; and behold troubleH6869 and darknessH2825, dimnessH4588 of anguishH6695; and they shall be drivenH5080 to darknessH653.
GiveH5414 gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068 your GodH430, before he cause darknessH2821, and before your feetH7272 stumbleH5062 upon the darkH5399 mountainsH2022, and, while ye lookH6960 for lightH216, he turnH7760 it into the shadow of deathH6757, and makeH7896+H7896 it gross darknessH6205.
And saidG2036, OG5599 fullG4134 of allG3956 subtiltyG1388 andG2532 allG3956 mischiefG4468, thou childG5207 of the devilG1228, thou enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, wilt thouG3973 notG3756 ceaseG3973 to pervertG1294 the rightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962?
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, the handG5495 of the LordG2962 is uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 thou shalt beG2071 blindG5185, notG3361 seeingG991 the sunG2246 forG891 a seasonG2540. AndG1161 immediatelyG3916 there fellG1968 onG1909 himG846 a mistG887 andG2532 a darknessG4655; andG2532 he went aboutG4013 seekingG2212 some to lead him by the handG5497.
