Job 38:5 in Context — Job 38
3 Ceins tes reins comme un vaillant homme; Je t’interrogerai, et tu m’instruiras.
4 Où étais-tu quand je fondais la terre? Dis-le, si tu as de l’intelligence.
5 Qui en a fixé les dimensions, le sais-tu? Ou qui a étendu sur elle le cordeau?
6 Sur quoi ses bases sont-elles appuyées? Ou qui en a posé la pierre angulaire,
7 Alors que les étoiles du matin éclataient en chants d’allégresse, Et que tous les fils de Dieu poussaient des cris de joie?
