Job 42:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 I know that thou canst do all things, and that there is no [a]thought hid from thee.
3 Who is he that hideth counsel without [b]knowledge? therefore have I spoken that I understood not, even things too wonderful for me, [c]and which I knew not.
4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, [d]and declare thou unto me.
