Job 37:1-10 ▼

1 At this also my heart pounds and leaps from its place.

2 Listen carefully to the thunder of his voice, to the rumbling that proceeds from his mouth.

3 Under the whole heaven he lets it go, even his lightning to the far corners of the earth.

4 After that a voice roars; he thunders with an exalted voice, and he does not hold back his lightning bolts when his voice is heard.

5 God thunders with his voice in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding.

6 For to the snow he says, 'Fall to earth,' and to the torrential rains, 'Pour down.'

7 He causes everyone to stop working, so that all people may know his work.

8 The wild animals go to their lairs, and in their dens they remain.

9 A tempest blows out from its chamber, icy cold from the driving winds.

10 The breath of God produces ice, and the breadth of the waters freeze solid.
