King James Version (KJV)

Job 38:21

“Knowest thou [it], because thou wast then born? or [because] the number of thy days [is] great?”

Verse in context — Job 38

Where [is] the way [where] light dwelleth? and [as for] darkness, where [is] the place thereof,

That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths [to] the house thereof?

Knowest thou [it], because thou wast then born? or [because] the number of thy days [is] great?

Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,

Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
