6Then answered I and said, What man is able to doe that, that thou shouldest aske such things of mee? 7And he said vnto me, If I should aske thee how great dwellings are in the midst of þe sea, or how many springs are in the beginning of the deepe, or how many springs are aboue the firmament, or which are the outgoings of Paradise: 8Peraduenture thou wouldest say vnto me, I neuer went downe into the deepe, nor as yet into hell, neither did I euer climbe vp into heauen. 9Neuerthelesse, now haue I asked thee but onely of the fire and winde, and of the day where through thou hast passed, and of things frō which thou canst not be separated, and yet canst thou giue me uo answeere of them. 10He said moreouer vnto me, Thine owne things, and such as are growen vp with thee, canst thou not know.
