←Prev   Job 37 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


37:1  “At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.
37:2  Hear attentively the noise of His voice, and the sound that goeth out of His mouth.
37:3  He directeth it 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 He will not stay them when His voice is heard.
37:5  God thundereth marvelously with His voice; great things doeth He, which we cannot comprehend!
37:6  For He saith to the snow, ‘Be thou on the earth’; likewise to the small rain and to the great rain of His strength.
37:7  He sealeth up the hand of every man, that all men may know His work.
37:8  Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
37:9  Out of the south cometh the whirlwind, and cold out of the north.
37:10  By the breath of God frost is given, and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
37:11  Also by watering He wearieth the thick cloud; He scattereth His bright cloud,
37:12  and it is turned round about by His counsels, that they may do whatsoever He commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth.
37:13  He causeth it to come—whether for correction, or for His land, or for mercy.
37:14  “Hearken unto this, O 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 Him who is perfect in knowledge?
37:17  How thy garments are warm, when He quieteth 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 shall say unto Him, for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.
37:20  Shall it be told Him that I speak? If a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.
37:21  And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds, but the wind passeth and cleanseth them.
37:22  Fair weather cometh out of the north; with God is fearsome majesty.
37:23  Concerning the Almighty, we cannot find Him out; He is excellent in power and in judgment, and abounding in justice; He will not afflict.
37:24  Men do therefore fear Him; He respecteth not any that are wise of heart.”
