Strona 169 - Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all. 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?
Strona 124 - The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; Even the waters forgotten of the foot; They are dried up, they are gone away from men.
Strona 168 - Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
