Bible verse
Who gave Him charge over the earth? Who appointed Him over the whole world?
Job 34:13 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 34.
9 For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing that he should delight in God.’
10 Therefore listen to me, O men of understanding. Far be it from God to do wrong, and from the Almighty to act unjustly.
11 For according to a man’s deeds He repays him; according to a man’s ways He brings consequences.
12 Indeed, it is true that God does not act wickedly, and the Almighty does not pervert justice.
13 Who gave Him charge over the earth? Who appointed Him over the whole world?
14 If He were to set His heart to it and withdraw His Spirit and breath,
15 all flesh would perish together and mankind would return to the dust.
16 If you have understanding, hear this; listen to my words.
17 Could one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One,
