The Book of Job

37: 1Yea, at this my heart trembleth,

 And is moved out of its place.

 ^37:2Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice,

 And the sound that goeth out of his mouth.

 ^37:3He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven,

 And his lightening unto the ends of the earth.

 ^37:4After it a voice roareth;

 He thundereth with the voice of his majesty;

 And he restraineth not the lightnings when his voice is heard.

 ^37:5God thundereth marvellously with his voice;

 Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.

 ^37:6For he saith to the snow, Fall thou on the earth;

 Likewise to the shower of rain,

 And to the showers of his mighty rain.

 ^37:7He sealeth up the hand of every man,

 That all men whom he hath made may know it.

 ^37:8Then the beasts go into coverts,

 And remain in their dens.

 ^37:9Out of the chamber of the south cometh the storm,

 And cold out of the north.

 ^37:10By the breath of God ice is given;

 And the breadth of the waters is straitened.

 ^37:11Yea, he ladeth the thick cloud with moisture;

 He spreadeth abroad the cloud of his lightning:

 ^37:12And it is turned round about by his guidance,

 That they may do whatsoever he commandeth them

 Upon the face of the habitable world,

 ^37:13Whether it be for correction, or for his land,

 Or for lovingkindness, that he cause it to come.
 
 

 ^37:14Hearken unto this, O Job:

 Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

 ^37:15Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them,

 And causeth the lightning of his cloud to shine?

 ^37:16Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds,

 The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?

 ^37:17How thy garments are warm,

 When the earth is still by reason of the south wind?

 ^37:18Canst thou with him spread out the sky,

 Which is strong as a molten mirror?

 ^37:19Teach us what we shall say unto him;

 For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness.

 ^37:20Shall it be told him that I would speak?

 Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

 ^37:21And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies;

 But the wind passeth, and cleareth them.

 ^37:22Out of the north cometh golden splendor:

 God hath upon him terrible majesty.

 ^37:23Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out

  He is excellent in power;

 And in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict.

 ^37:24Men do therefore fear him:

 He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.
