Job 37

¹ Yea, at this my heart trembleth, And is moved out of its place. ² Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, sound that goeth out of his mouth. ³ He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, lightning unto the __a__FOOTNOTE__a__ Job 37:3 Hebrew skirts. __b__FOOTNOTE__b__ ends of the earth. ⁴ After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of his majesty; the lightnings when his voice is heard. ⁵ God thundereth marvellously with his voice; Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. ⁶ For he saith to the snow, Fall thou on the earth; Likewise to the shower of rain, And to the showers of his mighty rain. ⁷ He sealeth up the hand of every man, it . ⁸ Then the beasts go into coverts, And remain in their dens. ⁹ Out of the chamber of the south cometh the storm, north. ¹⁰ By the breath of God ice is given; straitened. ¹¹ Yea, he ladeth the thick cloud with moisture; lightning: ¹² And it is turned round about by his guidance, That they may do whatsoever he commandeth them Upon the face of the habitable world, ¹³ Whether it be for correction, or for his land, Or for lovingkindness, that he cause it to come. ¹⁴ Hearken unto this, O Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. ¹⁵ Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them, lightning of his cloud to shine? ¹⁶ Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge? ¹⁷ __a__FOOTNOTE__a__ Job 37:17 Or, Thou whose garments are etc. __b__FOOTNOTE__b__ How thy garments are warm, __a__FOOTNOTE__a__ Job 37:17 Or, When he quieteth the earth by the south wind __b__FOOTNOTE__b__ When the earth is still by reason of the south wind ? ¹⁸ Canst thou with him spread out the sky, Which is strong as a molten mirror? ¹⁹ Teach us what we shall say unto him; For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness. ²⁰ Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up? ²¹ And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind passeth, and cleareth them. ²² Out of the north cometh golden splendor: God hath upon him terrible majesty. ²³ Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: He is excellent in power; in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict. ²⁴ Men do therefore fear him: He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.
