| Job 37: (ASV) |
| 1) Yea, at this my heart trembleth, And is moved out of its place. |
| 2) Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, And the sound that goeth out of 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 majesty; And he restraineth not the lightnings when his voice is heard. |
| 5) God thundereth marvellously with his voice; Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. |
| 6) For he saith to the snow, Fall thou on the earth; Likewise to the shower of rain, And to the showers of his mighty rain. |
| 7) He sealeth up the hand of every man, That all men whom he hath made may know it. |
| 8) Then the beasts go into coverts, And remain in their dens. |
| 9) Out of the chamber of the south cometh the storm, And cold out of the north. |
| 10) By the breath of God ice is given; And the breadth of the waters is straitened. |
| 11) Yea, he ladeth the thick cloud with moisture; He spreadeth abroad the cloud of his lightning: |
| 12) And it is turned round about by his guidance, That they may do whatsoever he commandeth them Upon the face of the habitable world, |
| 13) Whether it be for correction, or for his land, Or for lovingkindness, that he cause it to come. |
| 14) Hearken unto this, O Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. |
| 15) Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them, And causeth the lightning of his cloud to shine? |
| 16) Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge? |
| 17) How thy garments are warm, When the earth is still by reason of the south wind? |
| 18) Canst thou with him spread out the sky, Which is strong as a molten mirror? |
| 19) Teach us what we shall say unto him; For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness. |
| 20) Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up? |
| 21) And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind passeth, and cleareth them. |
| 22) Out of the north cometh golden splendor: God hath upon him terrible majesty. |
| 23) Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: He is excellent in power; And in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict. |
| 24) Men do therefore fear him: He regardeth not any that are wise of heart. |
