Chapter 37

1


 

  'Yes, at this my heart trembles, And is moved out of its place.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, The sound that goes out of his mouth.  

 

 

-

3


 

  He sends it forth under the whole sky, And his lightning to the ends of the earth.  

 

 

-

4


 

  After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty; He doesn't hold back anything when his voice is heard.  

 

 

-

5


 

  God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things, which we can't comprehend.  

 

 

-

6


 

  For he says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth;' Likewise to the shower of rain, And to the showers of his mighty rain.  

 

 

-

7


 

  He seals up the hand of every man, That all men whom he has made may know it.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Then the animals go into coverts, And remain in their dens.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Out of its chamber comes the storm, And cold out of the north.  

 

 

-

10


 

  By the breath of God, ice is given, And the breadth of the waters is frozen.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Yes, he loads the thick cloud with moisture. He spreads abroad the cloud of his lightning.  

 

 

-

12


 

  It is turned round about by his guidance, That they may do whatever he commands them On the surface of the habitable world,  

 

 

-

13


 

  Whether it is for correction, or for his land, Or for lovingkindness, that he causes it to come.  

 

 

-

14


 

  'Listen to this, Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Do you know how God controls them, And causes the lightning of his cloud to shine?  

 

 

-

16


 

  Do you know the workings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?  

 

 

-

17


 

  You whose clothing is warm, When the earth is still by reason of the south wind?  

 

 

-

18


 

  Can you, with him, spread out the sky, Which is strong as a cast metal mirror?  

 

 

-

19


 

  Teach us what we shall tell him; For we can't make our case 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


 

  Now men don't see the light which is bright in the skies, But the wind passes, and clears them.  

 

 

-

22


 

  Out of the north comes golden splendor; With God is awesome majesty.  

 

 

-

23


 

  We can't reach the Almighty, He is exalted in power; In justice and great righteousness he will not oppress.  

 

 

-

24


 

  Therefore men revere him. He doesn't regard any who are wise of heart.'
