1. Then Job answered and said,
2. I know it to be so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?
3. If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.
4. He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?
5. Who removeth the mountains, and they know not: who overturneth them in his anger.
6. Who shaketh the earth out of her place, and its pillars tremble.
7. Who commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.
8. Who alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.
