Job 36:26

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.

God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things which we cannot comprehend.

Great is LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.

Can thou find out God by searching? Can thou find out the Almighty to perfection?

Lo, these are but the periphery of his ways. And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?

[O] the Almighty, we cannot find him out. He is excellent in power. And in justice and abundant righteousness he will not afflict.

But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee. How much less this house that I have built!

Before the mountains were brought forth, or thou had ever formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou are God.

I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days. Thy years are throughout all generations.

And thou will roll them up as a mantle, and they will be changed. But thou are the same, and thy years will not cease.

But beloved, this one thing you should not ignore, that one day with Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
