Job - Chapter: 38


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


38:1	ויען יהוה את איוב מנהסערה ויאמר׃
38:2	מי זה מחשׁיך עצה במלין בלי דעת׃
38:3	אזר נא כגבר חלציך ואשׁאלך והודיעני׃
38:4	איפה היית ביסדי ארץ הגד אם ידעת בינה׃
38:5	מי שׂם ממדיה כי תדע או מי נטה עליה קו׃
38:6	על מה אדניה הטבעו או מי ירה אבן פנתה׃
38:7	ברן יחד כוכבי בקר ויריעו כל בני אלהים׃
38:8	ויסך בדלתים ים בגיחו מרחם יצא׃
38:9	בשׂומי ענן לבשׁו וערפל חתלתו׃
38:10	ואשׁבר עליו חקי ואשׂים בריח ודלתים׃
38:11	ואמר עד פה תבוא ולא תסיף ופא ישׁית בגאון גליך׃
38:12	המימיך צוית בקר ידעתה שׁחר מקמו׃
38:13	לאחז בכנפות הארץ וינערו רשׁעים ממנה׃
38:14	תתהפך כחמר חותם ויתיצבו כמו לבושׁ׃
38:15	וימנע מרשׁעים אורם וזרוע רמה תשׁבר׃
38:16	הבאת עד נבכי ים ובחקר תהום התהלכת׃
38:17	הנגלו לך שׁערי מות ושׁערי צלמות תראה׃
38:18	התבננת עד רחבי ארץ הגד אם ידעת כלה׃
38:19	אי זה הדרך ישׁכן אור וחשׁך אי זה מקמו׃
38:20	כי תקחנו אל גבולו וכי תבין נתיבות ביתו׃
38:21	ידעת כי אז תולד ומספר ימיך רבים׃
38:22	הבאת אל אצרות שׁלג ואצרות ברד תראה׃
38:23	אשׁר חשׂכתי לעת צר ליום קרב ומלחמה׃
38:24	אי זה הדרך יחלק אור יפץ קדים עלי ארץ׃
38:25	מי פלג לשׁטף תעלה ודרך לחזיז קלות׃
38:26	להמטיר על ארץ לא אישׁ מדבר לא אדם׃
38:27	להשׂביע שׁאה ומשׁאה ולהצמיח מצא דשׁא׃
38:28	הישׁ למטר אב או מי הוליד אגלי טל׃
38:29	מבטן מי יצא הקרח וכפר שׁמים מי ילדו׃
38:30	כאבן מים יתחבאו ופני תהום יתלכדו׃
38:31	התקשׁר מעדנות כימה או משׁכות כסיל תפתח׃
38:32	התציא מזרות בעתו ועישׁ על בניה תנחם׃
38:33	הידעת חקות שׁמים אם תשׂים משׁטרו בארץ׃
38:34	התרים לעב קולך ושׁפעת מים תכסך׃
38:35	התשׁלח ברקים וילכו ויאמרו לך הננו׃
38:36	מי שׁת בטחות חכמה או מי נתן לשׂכוי בינה׃
38:37	מי יספר שׁחקים בחכמה ונבלי שׁמים מי ישׁכיב׃
38:38	בצקת עפר למוצק ורגבים ידבקו׃
38:39	התצוד ללביא טרף וחית כפירים תמלא׃
38:40	כי ישׁחו במעונות ישׁבו בסכה למו ארב׃
38:41	מי יכין לערב צידו כי ילדו אל אל ישׁועו יתעו לבלי אכל׃


38:1	And Jehovah answereth Job out of the whirlwind, and saith: --
38:2	Who `is' this -- darkening counsel, By words without knowledge?
38:3	Gird, I pray thee, as a man, thy loins, And I ask thee, and cause thou Me to know.
38:4	Where wast thou when I founded earth? Declare, if thou hast known understanding.
38:5	Who placed its measures -- if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched out upon it a line?
38:6	On what have its sockets been sunk? Or who hath cast its corner-stone?
38:7	In the singing together of stars of morning, And all sons of God shout for joy,
38:8	And He shutteth up with doors the sea, In its coming forth, from the womb it goeth out.
38:9	In My making a cloud its clothing, And thick darkness its swaddling band,
38:10	And I measure over it My statute, And place bar and doors,
38:11	And say, `Hitherto come thou, and add not, And a command is placed On the pride of thy billows.'
38:12	Hast thou commanded morning since thy days? Causest thou the dawn to know its place?
38:13	To take hold on the skirts of the earth, And the wicked are shaken out of it,
38:14	It turneth itself as clay of a seal And they station themselves as clothed.
38:15	And withheld from the wicked is their light, And the arm lifted up is broken.
38:16	Hast thou come in to springs of the sea? And in searching the deep Hast thou walked up and down?
38:17	Revealed to thee were the gates of death? And the gates of death-shade dost thou see?
38:18	Thou hast understanding, Even unto the broad places of earth! Declare -- if thou hast known it all.
38:19	Where `is' this -- the way light dwelleth? And darkness, where `is' this -- its place?
38:20	That thou dost take it unto its boundary, And that thou dost understand The paths of its house.
38:21	Thou hast known -- for then thou art born And the number of thy days `are' many!
38:22	Hast thou come in unto the treasure of snow? Yea, the treasures of hail dost thou see?
38:23	That I have kept back for a time of distress, For a day of conflict and battle.
38:24	Where `is' this, the way light is apportioned? It scattereth an east wind over the earth.
38:25	Who hath divided for the flood a conduit? And a way for the lightning of the voices?
38:26	To cause `it' to rain on a land -- no man, A wilderness -- no man in it.
38:27	To satisfy a desolate and waste place, And to cause to shoot up The produce of the tender grass?
38:28	Hath the rain a father? Or who hath begotten the drops of dew?
38:29	From whose belly came forth the ice? And the hoar-frost of the heavens, Who hath begotten it?
38:30	As a stone waters are hidden, And the face of the deep is captured.
38:31	Dost thou bind sweet influences of Kimah? Or the attractions of Kesil dost thou open?
38:32	Dost thou bring out Mazzaroth in its season? And Aysh for her sons dost thou comfort?
38:33	Hast thou known the statutes of heaven? Or dost thou appoint Its dominion in the earth?
38:34	Dost thou lift up to the cloud thy voice, And abundance of water doth cover thee?
38:35	Dost thou send out lightnings, and they go And say unto thee, `Behold us?'
38:36	Who hath put in the inward parts wisdom? Or who hath given To the covered part understanding?
38:37	Who doth number the clouds by wisdom? And the bottles of the heavens, Who doth cause to lie down,
38:38	In the hardening of dust into hardness, And clods cleave together?
38:39	Dost thou hunt for a lion prey? And the desire of young lions fulfil?
38:40	When they bow down in dens -- Abide in a thicket for a covert?
38:41	Who doth prepare for a raven his provision, When his young ones cry unto God? They wander without food.
