Job 38:15
13 that it might spread to the ends of the earth and shake the wicked out of it?
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its hills stand out like the folds of a garment.
Light is withheld from the wicked, and their upraised arm is broken.
16 Have you journeyed to the vents of the sea or walked in the trenches of the deep?
17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
