Job 38:2-12 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

2. Why do you talk so muchwhen you know so little?

3. Now get ready to face me!Can you answerthe questions I ask?

4. How did I lay the foundationfor the earth?Were you there?

5. Doubtless you know who decidedits length and width.

6. What supports the foundation?Who placed the cornerstone,

7. while morning stars sang,and angels rejoiced?

8. When the ocean was born,I set its boundaries

9. and wrapped it in blanketsof thickest fog.

10. Then I built a wall around it,locked the gates,

11. and said,“Your powerful waves stop here!They can go no further.”

12. Did you ever tell the sun to rise?And did it obey?
