Job 37
</p>
<p>
1. "At this also my heart trembles, and leaps from its place.
<br/>
2. Hear attentively the thunder of His voice, and the rumbling that comes from His
mouth.
<br/>
3. He sends it forth under the whole heaven, His lightning to the ends of the earth.
<br/>
4. After it a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice, and He does not restrain
them when His voice is heard.
<br/>
5. God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things which we cannot
comprehend.
<br/>
6. For He says to the snow, `Be on the earth'; likewise to the gentle rain and the heavy
rain of His strength.
<br/>
7. He seals the hand of every man, that all men may know His work.
<br/>
8. The animals enter dens, and remain in their lairs.
<br/>
9. From the chamber of the south comes the whirlwind, and cold from the scattering winds
of the north.
<br/>
10. By the breath of God ice is given, and the broad waters are frozen.
<br/>
11. Also with moisture He saturates the thick clouds; He scatters His bright clouds.
<br/>
12. and they swirl about, being turned by His guidance, that they may do whatever He
commands them on the face of the whole earth.
<br/>
13. He causes it to come, whether for correction, or for His land, or for mercy.
<br/>
<b>14. "Listen to this, O Job; stand still and consider the wondrous works of God. </b>
<br/>
<b> </b>
15. Do you know when God dispatches them, and causes the light of His cloud to shine?
<br/>
16. Do you know the balance of clouds, those wondrous works of Him who is perfect in
knowledge?
<br/>
17. Why are your garments hot, when He quiets the earth by the south wind?
<br/>
18. With Him, have you spread out the skies, strong as a cast metal mirror?
<br/>
19. "Teach us what we should say to Him, for we can prepare nothing because of the
darkness.
<br/>
20. Should He be told that I wish to speak? If a man were to speak, surely he would be
swallowed up.
<br/>
21. Even now men cannot look at the light when it is bright in the skies, when the wind
has passed and cleared them.
<br/>
22. He comes from the north as golden splendor; with God is awesome majesty.
<br/>
23. As for the Almighty, we cannot find Him; He is excellent in power, in judgment and
abundant justice; He does not oppress.
<br/>
<b>24. Therefore men fear Him; He shows no partiality to any who are wise of heart.'' </b>
