←Prev   Job 37 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


37:1  At this also my heart trembles and is moved out of its place.
37:2  Hear attentively his terrible voice and the word that goes out of his mouth.
37:3  He shall place it straight under the whole of the heavens, and his light shall extend unto the ends of the earth.
37:4  After it shall the sound roar; his valiant voice shall thunder; and he will not stay them even when his voice is heard.
37:5  God shall thunder marvelously with his voice; he does great things, which we cannot comprehend.
37:6  For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; rain after rain, and rain after rain in his strength.
37:7  He seals up the hand of every man that all men may know his work.
37:8  Then the beast shall go into its lair and inhabit its dwelling.
37:9  Out of the south comes the whirlwind and cold out of the north wind.
37:10  By the breath of God ice is given; and the broad waters are constrained.
37:11  In addition to this, with clarity he wearies the thick clouds; and he scatters them with his light.
37:12  And they are turned round about by his counsels; that they may do whatever he commands them upon the face of the world in the earth.
37:13  On some occasions for correction, on others for his land, on others for mercy he causes them to appear.
37:14  Hearken unto this, Job; stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
37:15  Dost thou know when God disposed them and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
37:16  Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of the one who is perfect in knowledge?
37:17  How thy garments are warm, when he quiets the earth by the south wind?
37:18  Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong and as a molten looking glass?
37:19  Teach us what we should say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.
37:20  Shall it be told him when I speak? When someone is swallowed up shall it be told him?
37:21  Also, sometimes the clear light which is in the heavens is not seen, but the wind passes and cleanses them.
37:22  Fair weather comes out of the north; with God is terrible majesty.
37:23  Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out; he is excellent in power and in judgment, and in plenty of righteousness he will not afflict.
37:24  Men, therefore, shall fear him; all the crafty of heart shall not see him.
