'Ask' in the Bible

"Yes, ask, please, about former days that {preceded you} from the day that God created humankind on the earth; [ask even] from [one] end of the heaven up to the [other] end of heaven {whether anything ever happened} like this great thing or {whether anything like it was ever heard}.

Remember [the] old days, {the years long past}; ask your father, and he will inform you, your elders and they will tell you.
