14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;its features are dyed like a garment.
15 Then from the wicked the light is withheld,and the arm raised in violence is broken.
16 Have you gone to the springs that fill the sea,or walked about in the recesses of the deep?
17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you?Have you seen the gates of deepest darkness?
18 Have you considered the vast expanses of the earth?Tell me, if you know it all!
19 “In what direction does light reside,and darkness, where is its place,
20 that you may take them to their bordersand perceive the pathways to their homes?
