Job 37:1-13 ▼

1 At this also mine heart is astonied, & is mooued out of his place.

2 Heare the sound of his voyce, and the noyse that goeth out of his mouth.

3 He directeth it vnder the whole heauen, and his light vnto the endes of the world.

4 After it a noyse soundeth: hee thundereth with the voyce of his maiestie, and hee will not stay them when his voyce is heard.

5 God thundereth marueilously with his voyce: he worketh great things, which we know not.

6 For he sayth to the snowe, Be thou vpon the earth: likewise to the small rayne and to the great rayne of his power.

7 With the force thereof he shutteth vp euery man, that all men may knowe his worke.

8 Then the beastes go into the denne, and remaine in their places.

9 The whirlewind commeth out of the South, and the colde from the North winde.

10 At the breath of God the frost is giuen, & the breadth of the waters is made narrowe.

11 He maketh also the cloudes to labour, to water the earth, and scattereth the cloude of his light.

12 And it is turned about by his gouernment, that they may doe whatsoeuer he commandeth them vpon the whole worlde:

13 Whether it be for punishment, or for his lande, or of mercie, he causeth it to come.
