14. It is changed like the signet-clay; and all things stand forth as in a garment:
15. And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the uplifted arm is broken.
16. Hast thou entered as far as the springs of the sea? and hast thou walked in the recesses of the deep?
17. Have the gates of death been revealed unto thee? and hast thou seen the gates of the shadow of death?
18. Hath thine understanding compassed the breadths of the earth? Declare if thou knowest it all.
19. Where is the way to where light dwelleth? and the darkness, where is its place,
20. That thou shouldest take it to its bound, and that thou shouldest know the paths to its house?
21. Thou knowest, for thou wast then born, and the number of thy days is great!
22. Hast thou entered into the storehouses of the snow, and hast thou seen the treasuries of the hail,
23. Which I have reserved for the time of distress, for the day of battle and war?
24. By what way is the light parted, and the east wind scattered upon the earth?
25. Who hath divided a channel for the rain-flood, and a way for the thunder's flash;
26. To cause it to rain on the earth, where no one is; on the wilderness wherein there is not a man;
27. To satisfy the desolate and waste ground, and to cause the sprout of the grass to spring forth?
28. Hath the rain a father? or who begetteth the drops of dew?
29. Out of whose womb cometh the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who bringeth it forth?
30. When the waters lie hidden as in stone, and the face of the deep holdeth fast together.
