1Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said:

12Didst thou since thy birth command the morning, and shew the dawning of the day its place?

13And didst thou hold the extremities of the earth shaking them, and hast thou shaken the ungodly out of it?

14The seal shall be restored as clay, and shall stand as a garment.

15From the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the high arm shall be broken.

16Hast thou entered into the depths of the sea, and walked in the lowest parts of the deep?

17Have the gates of death been opened to thee, and hast thou seen the darksome doors?

18Hast thou considered the breadth of the earth? tell me, if thou knowest all things.

19Where is the way where light dwelleth, and where is the place of darkness?

20That thou mayst bring every thing to its own bounds, and understand the paths of the house thereof.

21Didst thou know then that thou shouldst be born? and didst thou know the number of thy days?

3Wilt thou make void my judgment: and condemn me, that thou mayst be justified?

4And hast thou an arm like God, and canst thou thunder with a voice like him?

5Clothe thyself with beauty, and set thyself up on high, and be glorious, and put on goodly garments.

1Unto the end, a psalm of David. Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me:

2Thou hast known my sitting down, and my rising up.

3Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: my path and my line thou hast searched out.

7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy face?

8If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I descend into hell, thou art present.

9If I take my wings early in the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

10Even there also shall thy hand lead me: and thy right hand shall hold me.

13For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast protected me from my mother's womb.

14I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: wonderful are thy works, and my soul knoweth right well.

21Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.

1At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Who, thinkest thou, is the greater in the kingdom of heaven?

2And Jesus, calling unto him a little child, set him in the midst of them.

3And said: amen I say to you, unless you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven.

5And he that shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me.

10See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
