Scripture focus

7. [Art] thou the first man [that] was born? or wast thou made before the hills? 8. Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom to thyself? 9. What knowest thou, that we know not? [what] understandest thou, which [is] not in us? 10. With us [are] both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father. 11. [Are] the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee? 12. Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at, 13. That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest [such] words go out of thy mouth?
