Job 15:7–8

²Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

²Before the mountaines were broughtforth, or euer thou hadst formed the earth and the world: euen from euerlasting to euerlasting thou art God.

¹²With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.

¹²With the ancient is wisedome, and in length of dayes, vnderstanding.

⁴Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

⁵Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

⁶Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

⁷When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

⁸Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

⁹When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

¹⁰And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

¹¹And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?

¹²Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;

¹³That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

¹⁴It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.

¹⁵And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.

¹⁶Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?

¹⁷Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?

¹⁸Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

¹⁹Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

²⁰That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

²¹Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?

²²Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,

²³Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

²⁴By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?

²⁵Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;

²⁶To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;

²⁷To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?

²⁸Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?

²⁹Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?

³⁰The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.

³¹Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

³²Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?

³³Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?

³⁴Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?

³⁵Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here we are?

³⁶Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart?

³⁷Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,

³⁸When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together?

³⁹Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions,

⁴⁰When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait?

⁴¹Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.

^4*Where wast thou when I layd the foundations of the earth? declare, ^†if thou hast vnderstanding.

⁵Who hath layd the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line vpon it?

⁶Wherepuon are the ^†foundations thereof ^†fastened? or who layd the corner stone thereof?

⁷When the morning starres sang together, and all the sonnes of God shouted for ioy.

^8*Or who shut vp the sea with doores, when it brake foorth as if it had issued out of the wombe?

⁹When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thicke darknesse a swadling band for it,

¹⁰And ^‖brake vp for it my decreed place, and set barres and doores,

¹¹And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and heere shall ^†thy proud waues be stayed.

¹²Hast thou commaunded the morning since thy daies? and caused the day-spring to know his place,

¹³That it might take hold of the ^†endes of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

¹⁴It is turned as clay to the seale, and they stand as a garment.

¹⁵And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arme shalbe broken.

¹⁶Hast thou entred into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?

¹⁷Haue the gates of death bene opened vnto thee? or hast thou seene the doores of the shadow of death?

¹⁸Hast thou perceiued the breadth of the earth? Declare if thou knowest it all.

¹⁹Where is the way where light dwelleth? And as for darknesse, where is the place thereof?

²⁰That thou shouldest take it ^‖to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the pathes to the house thereof.

²¹Knowest thou it, because thou wast then borne? or because the number of thy daies is great?

²²Hast thou entred into the treasures of the snowe? or hast thou seene the treasures of the haile,

²³Which I haue reserued against the time of trouble, against the day of battaile and warre?

²⁴By what way is the light parted? which scattereth the East wind vpon the earth.

²⁵Who hath diuided a water-course for the ouerflowing of waters? or a way for the lightning of thunder,

²⁶To cause it to raine on the earth, where no man is: on the wildernesse wherein there is no man?

²⁷To satisfie the desolate and waste ground, and to cause the bud of the tender herbe to spring forth.

²⁸Hath the raine a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?

²⁹Out of whose wombe came the yce? and the hoary frost of heauen, who hath gendred it?

³⁰The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deepe ^†is frozen.

³¹Canst thou bind the sweete influences of ^‖Pleiades? or loose the bands of ^†Orion?

³²Canst thou bring forth ^‖Mazzaroth in his season, or canst thou ^†guide Arcturus with his sonnes?

³³Knowest thou the ordinances of heauen? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?

³⁴Canst thou lift vp thy voice to the cloudes, that abundance of waters may couer thee?

³⁵Canst thou send lightnings, that they may goe, and say vnto thee, ^†Here we are?

^36*Who hath put wisedome in the inward parts? or who hath giuen vnderstanding to the heart?

³⁷Who can number the cloudes in wisedome? or ^†who can stay the bottles of heauen,

^38‖When the dust ^†groweeh into hardnesse, and the clods cleaue fast together?

^39*Wilt thou hunt the pray for the lyon? or fill the ^†appetite of the young lyons,

⁴⁰When they couch in their dennes, and abide in the couert to lie in waite?

^41*Who prouideth for the rauen his foode? when his young ones cry vnto God, they wander for lacke of meate.

²²The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

²³I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

²⁴When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

²⁵Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

²²The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

²³I was set vp from euerlasting, from the beginning, or euer the earth was.

²⁴When there were no depthes, I was brought forth: when there were no fountaines abounding with water.

²⁵Before the mountaines were setled: before the hilles, was I brought foorth:

¹AND Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

¹¶ And Adam knew Eue his wife, and shee conceiued, and bare Cain, and said, I haue gotten a man from the LORD.

¹⁰With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father.

¹⁰With vs are both the gray headed, and very aged men, much elder then thy father.

³⁴For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counseller?

^34*For who hath knowen the mind of the Lord, or who hath bene his counseller?

¹⁸For who hath stood in the counsel of the Lord, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?

^18‖For who hath stood in the counsell of the LORD, and hath perceiued, and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?

¹⁶For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

^16*For who hath knowen the mind of the Lord that he ^†may instruct him? But we haue the mind of Christ.

⁹But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

¹⁰But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

¹¹For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

⁹But as it is written, ^*Eye hath not seene, nor eare heard, neither haue entred into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that loue him.

¹⁰But God hath reueiled them vnto vs by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deepe things of God.

¹¹For what man knoweth the things of a man, saue the spirit of man which is in him? Euen so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

⁷Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

⁷Surely the LORD God will doe nothing, but he reuealeth his secret vnto his seruants the Prophets.

²⁹The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

²⁹The secret things belong vnto the LORD our God: but those things which are reuealed belong vnto vs, and to our children for euer, that wee may doe all the words of this Law.

⁶And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.

⁶And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisedome, that they are double to that which is: know therefore that God exacteth of thee lesse then thine iniquitie deserueth.

²No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.

²No doubt but ye are the people, and wisedome shall die with you.

⁵O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.

⁶Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.

⁵O that you would altogether hold your peace, & it should be your wisdome.

⁶Heare now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.

⁴As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;

⁴As I was in the dayes of my youth, when the secret of God was vpon my tabernacle:

¹⁵Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

¹⁵Henceforth I call you not seruants, for the seruant knoweth not what his lord doth, but I haue called you friends: for all things that I haue heard of my Father, I haue made knowen vnto you.

²⁵¶ At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

²⁵¶ ^*At that time Iesus answered, and said, I thanke thee, O Father, Lord of heauen and earth, because thou hast hid these things frō the wise & prudent, & hast reueiled them vnto babes.

¹¹He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

¹¹He answered, and said vnto them, Because it is giuen vnto you to know the mysteries of the kingdome of heauen, but to them it is not giuen.

³⁵That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

³⁵That it might bee fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophet, saying, ^*I will open my mouth in parables, I wil vtter things which haue bin kept secret from the foundation of the world.

³²For the froward is abomination to the Lord: but his secret is with the righteous.

^32*For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous.

¹⁴The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

^14*‖The secret of the LORD is with them that feare him: and he will shew them his couenant.

²⁵Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
