This is not even a passage that talks about the “circle” (note to creationists: a circle is a two -dimensional shape, not to be confused with a globe!); Indeed, it begins with the north being “stretch[ed] out”, which would strongly contradict the image of a sphere where all meridians converge at the poles and if anything implies a flat, square Earth (although unusually, this would seem to place the cardinal directions as the sides rather than the corners).
And even if this were about a spherical Earth floating in the void, the Book of Job is from the mid-sixth Century BC, which would put it a mere century ahead of this insight being documented among Greek philosophers, who arrived at this conclusion by simple observation and logic.
PS:
Also, “stretching out” really does not fit for a bulk mass of rigid rock but rather calls to mind a thin sheet of flexible elastic material like cloth or leather, such as with a tent. Especially since it’s present tense, so this refers not to something that happened during Creation but to an ongoing process.

I think ‘stretched out the North’ refers to the sky. The North Star is the top of the tent. The solid sky stretches down from there and rests on the Earth below.
"The Bible revealed that the EARTH IS ROUND!”
The Bible reveals that the sun gets the night off, sitting in a little doghouse until morning.
The Bible reveals that god’s going to take up the Earth by the edges and shake all the evil off it like cleaning a rug.
The Bible reveals that God MADE the earth by spreading it over the top of the waters below. A little dirt raft, there.
There's a verse about the "circle of the Earth", but that's hardly evidence that the ancient writer knew anything of the natural world. A circle is also not a sphere, just like bugs don't have four feet, birds don't sing in perfect pitch, there never was a worldwide flood during human times, rabbits don't ruminate, there never were a golem called Adam, a magic rib otesanek named Eve, a talking snake and an irresistible vegetal lure to trick humanity into suffering...
"The Bible acknowledges the existence of water and grass, therefore YHWH created it all in 7 days and the mythology is all literally true!"
