“Where were you ^(A)when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell Me, if you ^(a)have understanding,

^{Tools

Who set its ^(B)measurements? Since you know.
Or who stretched the line on it?

^{Tools

“On what ^(C)were its bases sunk?
Or who laid its cornerstone,

^{Tools
7}

When the morning stars sang together
And all the ^(D)sons of God shouted for joy?
