Job 26:4

To whom hast thou uttered words For whose instruction hast thou uttered these things? For mine? Dost thou think I do not know that which the meanest persons are not unacquainted with; that God is incomparably greater and better than his creatures? Whose spirit came from thee Who inspired thee with this profound discourse of thine?
