Esther Chapter 7 (AMP)

Compare with Version:

¹ And said, 'This far you shall come, but no farther; And here your proud waves shall stop'?

² "Since your days began, have you ever commanded the morning, And caused the dawn to know its place,

³ So that light may take hold of the corners of the earth And shake the wickedness out of it?

⁴ "The earth is changed like clay into which a seal is pressed; And the things [of the earth] stand out like a [multi-colored] garment.

⁵ "Their light is withheld from the wicked, And the uplifted arm is broken.

⁶ "Have you entered and explored the springs of the sea Or [have you] walked in the recesses of the deep?

⁷ "Have the gates of death been revealed to you, Or have you seen the gates of deep darkness?

⁸ "Have you understood the expanse of the earth? Tell Me, if you know all this.

⁹ "Where is the[2] way where light dwells? And as for darkness, where is its place,

¹⁰ That you may take it to its territory And that you may know the paths to its house?
