12“Have you ever in your life commanded the morning,

And made the dawn know its place,

13So that it would take hold of the ends of the earth,

And the wicked would be shaken off from it?

14“It is changed like clay under the seal;

And they stand out like a garment.

15“Their light is withheld from the wicked,

And the uplifted arm is broken.

16“Have you entered the springs of the sea,

And walked in the depth of the ocean?

17“Have the gates of death been revealed to you,

And have you seen the gates of deep darkness?

18“Have you understood the expanse of the earth?

Tell Me, if you know all this.

19“Where is the way to the dwelling of light?

And darkness, where is its place,

20That you would take it to its territory,

And discern the paths to its home?

21“You know, for you were born then,

And the number of your days is great!

22“Have you entered the storehouses of the snow,

And have you seen the storehouses of the hail,

23Which I have reserved for a time of distress,

For a day of war and battle?

24“Where is the way that the light is divided,

And the east wind scattered on the earth?
