The Lord Reveals His Omnipotence to Job

1 Then the Lord answered Job aout of the whirlwind, and said: 
2 “Whoa is this who darkens counsel
By bwords without knowledge? 
3 aNow1 prepare yourself like a man;
I will question you, and you shall answer Me. 
4 “Wherea were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell Me, if you have understanding. 
5 Who determined its measurements?
Surely you know!
Or who stretched the1 line upon it? 
6 To what were its foundations fastened?
Or who laid its cornerstone,
7 When the morning stars sang together,
And all athe sons of God shouted for joy? 
8 “Ora who shut in the sea with doors,
When it burst forth and issued from the womb; 
9 When I made the clouds its garment,
And thick darkness its swaddling band;

Job 38:1

Lord - The eternal word, Jehovah, the same who spake from mount Sinai. Answered - Out of a dark and thick cloud, from which he sent a tempestuous wind, as the harbinger of his presence. In this manner God appears and speaks to awaken Job and his friends, to the more serious attention to his words; and to testify his displeasure both against Job, and them, that all of them might be more deeply humbled and prepared to receive, and retain the instructions which God was about to give them.
