New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 38
10 For I locked it behind barred gates, limiting its shores.
11 I said, ‘This far and no farther will you come. Here your proud waves must stop!’
12 “Have you ever commanded the morning to appear and caused the dawn to rise in the east?
13 Have you made daylight spread to the ends of the earth, to bring an end to the night’s wickedness?
14 As the light approaches, the earth takes shape like clay pressed beneath a seal; it is robed in brilliant colors.
15 The light disturbs the wicked and stops the arm that is raised in violence.
16 “Have you explored the springs from which the seas come? Have you explored their depths?
17 Do you know where the gates of death are located? Have you seen the gates of utter gloom?
18 Do you realize the extent of the earth? Tell me about it if you know!
19 “Where does light come from, and where does darkness go?
20 Can you take each to its home? Do you know how to get there?
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
