Job 42:3
1 Then Job replied to the LORD:
2 “I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
4 You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
5 My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
