Job 37:19

“Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can't make our case by reason of darkness.”

Verse in context — Job 37

You whose clothing is warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?

Can you, with him, spread out the sky, which is strong as a cast metal mirror?

Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can't make our case by reason of darkness.

Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

Now men don't see the light which is bright in the skies, but the wind passes, and clears them.

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