←Prev   Job 37 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


37:1  Aye, my heart trembleth at this also, and leapeth up out of its place:
37:2  Hear attentively the roar of his voice, and the murmur going forth from his mouth.
37:3  He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.
37:4  After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency, and holdeth not back the flashes when his voice is heard.
37:5  ï¿½God thundereth marvellously with his voice, doing great things which we do not comprehend.
37:6  For he saith to the snow, Fall on the earth! and to the pouring rain, even the pouring rains of his might.
37:7  He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
37:8  And the wild beast goeth into its lair, and they remain in their dens.
37:9  From the chamber of the south cometh the whirlwind; and cold from the winds of the north.
37:10  By the breath of �God ice is given; and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
37:11  Also with plentiful moisture he loadeth the thick clouds, his light dispels the cloud;
37:12  And they are turned every way by his guidance, that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the circuit of the earth,
37:13  Whether he cause it to come as a rod, or for his land, or in mercy.
37:14  Hearken unto this, Job; stand still and discern the wondrous works of �God.
37:15  Dost thou know how +God hath disposed them, and how he causeth the lightning of his cloud to flash?
37:16  Dost thou know about the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him that is perfect in knowledge?
37:17  How thy garments become warm when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
37:18  Hast thou with him spread out the sky, firm, like a molten mirror?
37:19  Teach us what we shall say unto him! We cannot order our words by reason of darkness.
37:20  Shall it be told him if I would speak? if a man so say, surely he shall be swallowed up.
37:21  And now men see not the light as it gleameth, it is hidden in the skies. But the wind passeth by and cleareth them.
37:22  From the north cometh gold; with +God is terrible majesty.
37:23  The Almighty, we cannot find him out: excellent in power, and in judgment, and in abundance of justice, he doth not afflict.
37:24  Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.
