38:1Forsothe the Lord answeride fro the whirlewynd to Joob,
38:2and seide, Who is this man, wlappynge sentences with vnwise wordis?
38:3Girde thou as a man thi leendis; Y schal axe thee, and answere thou to me.
38:4Where were thou, whanne Y settide the foundementis of erthe? schewe thou to me, if thou hast vndurstondyng.
38:5Who settide mesures therof, if thou knowist? ethir who stretchide forth a lyne theronne?
38:6On what thing ben the foundementis therof maad fast? ether who sente doun the corner stoon therof,
38:7whanne the morew sterris herieden me togidere, and alle the sones of God sungun ioyfuli?
38:8Who closide togidere the see with doris, whanne it brak out comynge forth as of the wombe?
38:9Whanne Y settide a cloude the hilyng therof, and Y wlappide it with derknesse, as with clothis of yong childhed.
38:10Y cumpasside it with my termes, and Y settide a barre, and doris;
38:11and Y seide, `Til hidur thou schalt come, and thou schalt not go forth ferthere; and here thou schalt breke togidere thi bolnynge wawis.
38:12Whethir aftir thi birthe thou comaundist to the bigynnyng of dai, and schewidist to the morewtid his place?
38:13Whethir thou heldist schakynge togidere the laste partis of erthe, and schakedist awei wickid men therfro?
38:14A seeling schal be restorid as cley, and it schal stonde as a cloth.
38:15The liyt of wickid men schal be takun awey fro hem, and an hiy arm schal be brokun.
38:16Whethir thou entridist in to the depthe of the see, and walkidist in the laste partis of the occian?
38:17Whether the yatis of deeth ben openyd to thee, and `siest thou the derk doris?
38:18Whethir thou hast biholde the brede of erthe? Schewe thou to me, if thou knowist alle thingis,
38:19in what weie the liyt dwellith, and which is the place of derknesse;
38:20that thou lede ech thing to hise termes, and thou vndurstonde the weies of his hows.
38:21Wistist thou thanne, that thou schuldist be borun, and knew thou the noumbre of thi daies?
38:22Whethir thou entridist in to the tresours of snow, ether biheldist thou the tresours of hail?
38:23whiche thingis Y made redy in to the tyme of an enemy, in to the dai of fiytyng and of batel.
38:24Bi what weie is the liyt spred abrood, heete is departid on erthe?
38:25Who yaf cours to the strongeste reyn,
38:26and weie of the thundur sownynge? That it schulde reyne on the erthe with out man in desert, where noon of deedli men dwellith?
38:27That it schulde fille a lond with out weie and desolat, and schulde brynge forth greene eerbis?
38:28Who is fadir of reyn, ether who gendride the dropis of deew?
38:29Of whos wombe yede out iys, and who gendride frost fro heuene?
38:30Watris ben maad hard in the licnesse of stoon, and the ouer part of occian is streyned togidere.
38:31Whether thou schalt mowe ioyne togidere schynynge sterris Pliades, ethir thou schalt mowe distrie the cumpas of Arturis?
38:32Whether thou bryngist forth Lucifer, `that is, dai sterre, in his tyme, and makist euene sterre to rise on the sones of erthe?
38:33Whether thou knowist the ordre of heuene, and schalt sette the resoun therof in erthe?
38:34Whethir thou schalt reise thi vois in to a cloude, and the fersnesse of watris schal hile thee?
38:35Whethir thou schalt sende leitis, and tho schulen go, and tho schulen turne ayen, and schulen seie to thee, We ben present?
38:36Who puttide wisdoom in the entrailis of man, ethir who yaf vndurstondyng to the cok?
38:37Who schal telle out the resoun of heuenes, and who schal make acordyng of heuene to sleep?
38:38Whanne dust was foundid in the erthe, and clottis weren ioyned togidere?
38:39Whether thou schalt take prey to the lionesse, and schalt fille the soulis of hir whelpis,
38:40whanne tho liggen in caues, and aspien in dennes?
38:41Who makith redi for the crowe his mete, whanne hise briddis crien to God, and wandren aboute, for tho han not meetis?

 

38:1Then answered the Lord vnto Iob out of the whirle winde, and said,
38:2Who is this that darkeneth the counsell by wordes without knowledge?
38:3Girde vp nowe thy loynes like a man: I will demande of thee and declare thou vnto me.
38:4Where wast thou when I layd the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast vnderstanding,
38:5Who hath layde the measures thereof, if thou knowest, or who hath stretched the line ouer it:
38:6Whereupon are the foundations thereof set: or who layed the corner stone thereof:
38:7When the starres of the morning praysed me together, and all the children of God reioyced:
38:8Or who hath shut vp the Sea with doores, when it yssued and came foorth as out of the wombe:
38:9When I made the cloudes as a couering thereof, and darkenesse as the swadeling bands thereof:
38:10When I stablished my commandement vpon it, and set barres and doores,
38:11And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no farther, and here shall it stay thy proude waues.
38:12Hast thou commanded the morning since thy dayes? hast thou caused the morning to knowe his place,
38:13That it might take hold of the corners of the earth, and that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
38:14It is turned as clay to facion, and all stand vp as a garment.
38:15And from the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the hie arme shalbe broken.
38:16Hast thou entred into the bottomes of the sea? or hast thou walked to seeke out the depth?
38:17Haue the gates of death bene opened vnto thee? or hast thou seene the gates of the shadowe of death?
38:18Hast thou perceiued the breadth of the earth? tell if thou knowest all this.
38:19Where is the way where light dwelleth? and where is the place of darkenesse,
38:20That thou shouldest receiue it in the boundes thereof, and that thou shouldest knowe the paths to the house thereof?
38:21Knewest thou it, because thou wast then borne, and because the nomber of thy dayes is great?
38:22Hast thou entred into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seene the treasures of ye haile,
38:23Which I haue hid against the time of trouble, against the day of warre and battell?
38:24By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the East winde vpon the earth?
38:25Who hath deuided the spowtes for the raine? or the way for the lightning of ye thunders,
38:26To cause it to raine on the earth where no man is, and in the wildernes where there is no man?
38:27To fulfil the wilde and waste place, and to cause the bud of the herbe to spring forth?
38:28Who is the father of the rayne? or who hath begotten the droppes of the dewe?
38:29Out of whose wombe came the yee? who hath ingendred the frost of the heauen?
38:30The waters are hid as with a stone: and the face of the depth is frosen.
38:31Canst thou restraine the sweete influences of the Pleiades? or loose the bandes of Orion?
38:32Canst thou bring foorth Mazzaroth in their time? canst thou also guide Arcturus with his sonnes?
38:33Knowest thou the course of heauen, or canst thou set the rule thereof in the earth?
38:34Canst thou lift vp thy voice to the cloudes that the aboundance of water may couer thee?
38:35Canst thou sende the lightenings that they may walke, and say vnto thee, Loe, heere we are?
38:36Who hath put wisedome in the reines? or who hath giuen the heart vnderstanding?
38:37Who can nomber cloudes by wisedome? or who can cause to cease the bottels of heaue,
38:38When the earth groweth into hardnesse, and the clottes are fast together?
