Job 36:24
22 Behold, God is exalted in His power. Who is a teacher like Him?
23 Who has appointed His way for Him, or told Him, ‘You have done wrong’?
Remember to magnify His work, which men have praised in song.
25 All mankind has seen it; men behold it from afar.
26 Indeed, God is great—beyond our knowledge; the number of His years is unsearchable.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
