In that case i believe I would quote these verses Jeremiah 5:21
'Now hear this, O foolish and senseless people, Who have eyes but do not see; Who have ears but do not hear.
Ezekiel 12:2
"Son of man, you live in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see but do not see, ears to hear but do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.
'Now hear this, O foolish and senseless people, Who have eyes but do not see; Who have ears but do not hear.
Ezekiel 12:2
"Son of man, you live in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see but do not see, ears to hear but do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.

You are not going to find two verses that state verbatim that the earth is flat. It is not written in such a clear-and-blunt fashion.
What you will find -- are verses that indicate specific details that more-closely match a Flat Earth than a Globe Earth.
Consider:
Proverbs 8:
[SUP]27[/SUP] When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
In this verse, the word 'compass' means 'circle', and the word 'depth' is referring to water depth. ( It is the same Hebrew word as 'deep' in Genesis 1:2. )
Where on the Globe Earth is this 'circle' -- on the face -- of the oceans...?
On the Flat Earth, it would no-doubt be referring to the ICE WALL - which surrounds the oceans.
And, speaking of the ICE WALL...
Job 26:
[SUP]10[/SUP] He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
The ICE WALL is a boundary - a container - around the oceans.
What boundary - or, container - exists around the oceans on a Globe Earth?
There are several such verses in scripture; collectively, they "paint a picture" of an Earth that is Flat, not a Globe.

Genesis 1:
[SUP]1[/SUP] In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [SUP]2[/SUP] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. [SUP]3[/SUP] And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. [SUP]4[/SUP] And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. [SUP]5[/SUP] And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. [SUP]6[/SUP] And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. [SUP]7[/SUP] And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. [SUP]8[/SUP] And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. [SUP]9[/SUP] And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. [SUP]10[/SUP] And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. [SUP]11[/SUP] And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. [SUP]12[/SUP] And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. [SUP]13[/SUP] And the evening and the morning were the third day. [SUP]14[/SUP] And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: [SUP]15[/SUP] And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. [SUP]16[/SUP] And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. [SUP]17[/SUP] And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, [SUP]18[/SUP] And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. [SUP]19[/SUP] And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. [SUP]20[/SUP] And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
So then --- God placed the sun and moon ( and stars ) in the same 'space' where the birds fly...

if you ask him, he'll show you a picture of the coast of Antarctica, as though it's some kind of incontrovertible evidence.
like this one:
though one should probably ask, if this is impenetrable, what's stopping the airplane that took the picture from just flying over it?
well, nothing, obviously.
and if we zoom out a little bit, we can see the mountains that hold up the sky?
