17 Has anyone shown you the gates to the world of the dead? Have you ever seen those gates that lead to the dark place of death?
18 Do you really understand how big the earth is? Tell me, if you know all this.
19 “Where does light come from? Where does darkness come from?
20 Can you take them back to where they belong? Do you know how to get there?
21 Surely you know these things, since you are so old and wise. You were alive when I made them, weren’t you?
22 “Have you ever gone into the storerooms where I keep the snow and the hail?
23 I save them there for times of trouble, for the times of war and battle.
