38:1Then spake the Lorde vnto Iob oute of the storme, and sayd:
38:2what is he that hideth his mynde with folysh wordes?
38:3Gyrde vp thy loynes lyke a man, for I wyl question the, se thou geue me a dyrecte aunswere.
38:4Where wast thou, when I layde the foundacyons of the earth? Tel planely yf thou hast vnderstandyng.
38:5Who hath measured it, knoweste thou? Or, who hath spreade the lyne vpon it?
38:6Wherevpon stande the pylers of it? Or who layed the corner stone?
38:7Where wast thou when the mornyng starres praysed me together & all the chyldren of God reioysed triumphantly?
38:8Who shut the sea with dores, when it brake forth as a chyld oute of his mothers wombe?
38:9When I made the cloudes to be a coueryng for it, & swadled it wyth the darcke?
38:10when I gaue it my commaundement, makynge dores & barres for it,
38:11saying: Hytherto shalt thou come, but no forther, & here shalte thou laye doune thy proude & hye waues.
38:12Haste thou geuen the mornyng his charge (as sone as thou wast borne) and shewed the daye sprynge his place,
38:13that it might take holde of the corners of the earthe, & that the vngodlye myght be shaken out?
38:14Theyr tokens & weapons haste thou turned lyke claye & set them vp agayne as the chaunginge of a garment.
38:15Yea thou hast spoyled the vngodly of theyr lyght, & broken the arme of the proude.
38:16Camest thou euer into the grounde of the sea: or haste thou walked in the lowe corners of the depe?
38:17Haue the gates of death ben opened vnto the, or haste thou sene the dore of euerlasting treasure?
38:18Hast thou also perceiued, how broad the earth is? Nowe yf thou haste knowledge of all,
38:19then shewe me where lyght dwelleth, & where darcknes is:
38:20that thou mayest brynge vs vnto theyr quarters, yf thou canste tell the waye to theyr houses.
38:21Knewest thou (when thou wast borne) how olde thou shuldest be?
38:22Wentest thou euer into the threasuryes of the snowe, or haste thou sene the secrete places of the hayle,
38:23whiche I haue prepared agaynst the tyme of trouble, agaynste the tyme of battell and warre?
38:24By what waye is the lyghte parted, and the heate dealte oute vpon the earth?
38:25Who deuydeth the aboundaunce of waters into ryuers, or who maketh a waye for the stormye wether,
38:26that it watereth & moystureth the drye and baren grounde,
38:27to make the grasse growe in places where no body dwelleth, and in the wyldernes where no man remayneth?
38:28Who is the father of rayne? Or who hath begotten the droppes of dewe?
38:29Oute of whose wombe came the yse? Who hath gendred the coldnes of the ayre?
38:30that the waters are as harde as stones, and lye congeled aboue the depe.
38:31Haste thou brought the .vij. starres together? Or art thou able to breake the circle of heauen?
38:32Canst thou brynge forth the mornynge starre or the euenyng starre at conuenyente tyme, & conueye them home agayne?
38:33Knowest thou the course of heauen, that thou mayest set vp the ordynaunce thereof vpon the earth?
38:34Moreouer canst thou lyfte vp thy voyce to the cloudes, that they maye powre doune a greate rayne vpon the?
38:35Canste thou thondre also that they maye go theyr waye, & be obedient vnto the, saying: Lo here are we.
38:36Who geueth sure wysdome or stedfast vnderstandyng?
38:37who numbreth the cloudes in wysdome? who stylleth the vehement waters of heauen?
38:38who turneth the clottes to duste, & then to be clottes agayne?
38:39Hunteste thou the praye from the lyon, or fedest thou hys welpes
38:40lying in theyr dennes, & lurkyng in theyr couches?
38:41who prouydeth meate for the rauen, when his younge ones crye vnto God, and fle aboute for wante of meate?

Matthew's Bible 1537

The Matthew Bible, also known as Matthew's Version, was first published in 1537 by John Rogers, under the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew". It combined the New Testament of William Tyndale, and as much of the Old Testament as he had been able to translate before being captured and put to death, with the translations of Myles Coverdale as to the balance of the Old Testament and the Apocrypha, except the Apocryphal Prayer of Manasses. It is thus a vital link in the main sequence of English Bible translations.
