1 Then Job answered the Lord,
2 “I know that you can do all things,and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
3 You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand,things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.
4 You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak;I will question you, and you will answer me.’
5 I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear,but now my eye sees you.
