Job 38

The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA

1 respondens autem Dominus Iob de turbine dixit

2 quis est iste involvens sententias sermonibus inperitis

3 accinge sicut vir lumbos tuos interrogabo te et responde mihi

4 ubi eras quando ponebam fundamenta terrae indica mihi si habes intellegentiam

5 quis posuit mensuras eius si nosti vel quis tetendit super eam lineam

6 super quo bases illius solidatae sunt aut quis dimisit lapidem angularem eius

7 cum me laudarent simul astra matutina et iubilarent omnes filii Dei

8 quis conclusit ostiis mare quando erumpebat quasi de vulva procedens

9 cum ponerem nubem vestimentum eius et caligine illud quasi pannis infantiae obvolverem

10 circumdedi illud terminis meis et posui vectem et ostia

11 et dixi usque huc venies et non procedes amplius et hic confringes tumentes fluctus tuos

12 numquid post ortum tuum praecepisti diluculo et ostendisti aurorae locum suum

13 et tenuisti concutiens extrema terrae et excussisti impios ex ea

14 restituetur ut lutum signaculum et stabit sicut vestimentum

15 auferetur ab impiis lux sua et brachium excelsum confringetur

16 numquid ingressus es profunda maris et in novissimis abyssis deambulasti

17 numquid apertae tibi sunt portae mortis et ostia tenebrosa vidisti

18 numquid considerasti latitudines terrae indica mihi si nosti omnia

19 in qua via habitet lux et tenebrarum quis locus sit

20 ut ducas unumquodque ad terminos suos et intellegas semitas domus eius

21 sciebas tunc quod nasciturus esses et numerum dierum tuorum noveras

22 numquid ingressus es thesauros nivis aut thesauros grandinis aspexisti

23 quae praeparavi in tempus hostis in diem pugnae et belli

24 per quam viam spargitur lux dividitur aestus super terram

25 quis dedit vehementissimo imbri cursum et viam sonantis tonitrui

26 ut plueret super terram absque homine in deserto ubi nullus mortalium commoratur

27 ut impleret inviam et desolatam et produceret herbas virentes

28 quis est pluviae pater vel quis genuit stillas roris

29 de cuius utero egressa est glacies et gelu de caelo quis genuit

30 in similitudinem lapidis aquae durantur et superficies abyssi constringitur

31 numquid coniungere valebis micantes stellas Pliadis aut gyrum Arcturi poteris dissipare

32 numquid producis luciferum in tempore suo et vesperum super filios terrae consurgere facis

33 numquid nosti ordinem caeli et pones rationem eius in terra

34 numquid elevabis in nebula vocem tuam et impetus aquarum operiet te

35 numquid mittes fulgura et ibunt et revertentia dicent tibi adsumus

36 quis posuit in visceribus hominis sapientiam vel quis dedit gallo intellegentiam

37 quis enarravit caelorum rationem et concentum caeli quis dormire faciet

38 quando fundebatur pulvis in terram et glebae conpingebantur

39 numquid capies leaenae praedam et animam catulorum eius implebis

40 quando cubant in antris et in specubus insidiantur

41 quis praeparat corvo escam suam quando pulli eius ad Deum clamant vagantes eo quod non habeant cibos

New International Version NIV

1 Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm. He said:

2 “Who is this that obscures my plans with words without knowledge?

3 Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.

4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand.

5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?

6 On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone—

7 while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?

8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the womb,

9 when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness,

10 when I fixed limits for it and set its doors and bars in place,

11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther; here is where your proud waves halt’?

12 “Have you ever given orders to the morning, or shown the dawn its place,

13 that it might take the earth by the edges and shake the wicked out of it?

14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its features stand out like those of a garment.

15 The wicked are denied their light, and their upraised arm is broken.

16 “Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea or walked in the recesses of the deep?

17 Have the gates of death been shown to you? Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?

18 Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth? Tell me, if you know all this.

19 “What is the way to the abode of light? And where does darkness reside?

20 Can you take them to their places? Do you know the paths to their dwellings?

21 Surely you know, for you were already born! You have lived so many years!

22 “Have you entered the storehouses of the snow or seen the storehouses of the hail,

23 which I reserve for times of trouble, for days of war and battle?

24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed, or the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?

25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain, and a path for the thunderstorm,

26 to water a land where no one lives, an uninhabited desert,

27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland and make it sprout with grass?

28 Does the rain have a father? Who fathers the drops of dew?

29 From whose womb comes the ice? Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens

30 when the waters become hard as stone, when the surface of the deep is frozen?

31 “Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades? Can you loosen Orion’s belt?

32 Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasonsor lead out the Bear with its cubs?

33 Do you know the laws of the heavens? Can you set up God’s dominion over the earth?

34 “Can you raise your voice to the clouds and cover yourself with a flood of water?

35 Do you send the lightning bolts on their way? Do they report to you, ‘Here we are’?

36 Who gives the ibis wisdomor gives the rooster understanding?

37 Who has the wisdom to count the clouds? Who can tip over the water jars of the heavens

38 when the dust becomes hard and the clods of earth stick together?

39 “Do you hunt the prey for the lioness and satisfy the hunger of the lions

40 when they crouch in their dens or lie in wait in a thicket?

41 Who provides food for the raven when its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food?
