Job 37:1-12

1"At this also my heart trembles and leaps out of its place.

2Keep listening to the thunder of his voice and the rumbling that comes from his mouth.

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

4After it his voice roars; he thunders with his majestic voice, and he does not restrain the lightnings when his voice is heard.

5God thunders wondrously with his voice; he does great things that we cannot comprehend.

6For to the snow he says, 'Fall on the earth,' likewise to the downpour, his mighty downpour.

7He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he made may know it.

8Then the beasts go into their lairs, and remain in their dens.

9From its chamber comes the whirlwind, and cold from the scattering winds.

10By the breath of God ice is given, and the broad waters are frozen fast.

11He loads the thick cloud with moisture; the clouds scatter his lightning.

12They turn around and around by his guidance, to accomplish all that he commands them on the face of the habitable world.
