“You say, 'What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?”
“But you have said,‘What does God know? Does he judge through such deep darkness?”
“And thou sayst: What doth God know? and he judgeth as it were through a mist.”
“And you say, What knowledge has God? is he able to give decisions through the deep dark?”
“And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?”
Because of this, you are surrounded by traps, and unexpected fears will disturb you.
And did you think that you would not see darkness and that you were not to be overwhelmed by the onrush of overflowing waters?
Have you not considered that God is higher than the heavens and is lifted above the height of the stars?
And you say: “Well, what does God know?” and, “He judges, as if through a fog,”
and, “The clouds are his hiding-place,” and, “He does not examine us closely,” and, “He makes his rounds at the limits of the heavens.”
Do you not want to tend the path of the ages, which wicked men have spurned?
These were taken away before their time, and a flood overthrew their foundation.
