Job 37:1-10 ▼

1 Aye, my heart trembleth at this also, and leapeth up out of its place:

2 Hear attentively the roar of his voice, and the murmur going forth from his mouth.

3 He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.

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.

5 God thundereth marvellously with his voice, doing great things which we do not comprehend.

6 For he saith to the snow, Fall on the earth! and to the pouring rain, even the pouring rains of his might.

7 He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

8 And the wild beast goeth into its lair, and they remain in their dens.

9 From the chamber [of the south] cometh the whirlwind; and cold from the winds of the north.

10 By the breath of God ice is given; and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
