Job 38
- 1 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
- 2 Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
- 3 Gird up now your loins like a man; for I will demand of you, and answer you me.
- 4 Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if you have understanding.
- 5 Who has laid the measures thereof, if you know? or who has stretched the line on it?
- 6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
- 7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
- 8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
- 9 When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddling cloth for it,
- 10 And broke up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
- 11 And said, Till now shall you come, but no further: and here shall your proud waves be stayed?
- 12 Have you commanded the morning since your days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
- 13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
- 14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
- 15 And from the wicked their light is withheld, and the high arm shall be broken.
- 16 Have you entered into the springs of the sea? or have you walked in the search of the depth?
- 17 Have the gates of death been opened to you? or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death?
- 18 Have you perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if you know it all.
- 19 Where is the way where light dwells? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,
- 20 That you should take it to the bound thereof, and that you should know the paths to the house thereof?
- 21 Know you it, because you were then born? or because the number of your days is great?
- 22 Have you entered into the treasures of the snow? or have you seen the treasures of the hail,
- 23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?
- 24 By what way is the light parted, which scatters the east wind on the earth?
- 25 Who has divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;
- 26 To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
- 27 To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?
- 28 Has the rain a father? or who has begotten the drops of dew?
- 29 Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who has gendered it?
- 30 The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.
- 31 Can you bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
- 32 Can you bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or can you guide Arcturus with his sons?
- 33 Know you the ordinances of heaven? can you set the dominion thereof in the earth?
- 34 Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover you?
- 35 Can you send lightning, that they may go and say to you, Here we are?
- 36 Who has put wisdom in the inward parts? or who has given understanding to the heart?
- 37 Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,
- 38 When the dust grows into hardness, and the clods stuck fast together?
- 39 Will you hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions,
- 40 When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait?
- 41 Who provides for the raven his food? when his young ones cry to God, they wander for lack of meat.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.
Michael Peter (Stone) Engelbrite
