Job 37
A Faithful Version

1"My heart trembles at this also, and it leaps out of its place.

2Listen carefully to the thunder of His voice, and the rumbling that comes out of His mouth.

3He sends it out under the whole heaven, and His lightning to the ends of the earth.

4After it a sound roars; He thunders with the voice of His majesty, and He will not hold them back when His voice is heard.

5God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things, which we cannot comprehend.

6For He says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth;' also to the shower of rain, and to the showers of His mighty rain.

7He seals up the hand of every man, so that all men may know His work.

8Then the beast goes into its lair, and remains in its dens.

9Out of the south comes the whirlwind: and cold out of the north.

10By the breath of God ice is given; and the expanse of waters is frozen tight.

11Also He loads the clouds with moisture; He spreads abroad the clouds of His lightning.

12And they are turned around by His guidance, so that they may do whatever He commands them upon the face of the whole earth.

13Whether for correction, or for His land, or for mercy, He causes it to come.

14Hearken to this, O Job; stand still, and consider the wonderful works of God.

15Do you know how God directs them, and causes the lightning of His cloud to shine?

16Do you know the balancing of the clouds, the wonderful works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?

17You whose clothes are warm when the earth is still by the south wind?

18Have you spread out the expanse of the sky with Him, which is strong as a molten mirror?

19Teach us what we shall say to Him; for because of darkness we cannot order our speech.

20Shall it be told Him that I speak? If a man speaks, surely he shall be swallowed up.

21And now men cannot see the bright light in the skies, covered by the clouds; but the wind blows and clears them away.

22As golden splendor comes out of the north, God is awesome in His majesty.

23As for the Almighty, we cannot find Him out; He is exalted in power; and He does no violence to justice and abundant righteousness.

24Therefore, men fear Him; He does not show partiality to any who are wise of heart."
