Job 37:14-24

14“Listen to this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.15Do you know how God establishes them, And makes the 1lightning of His cloud to shine?16Do you know about the layers of the thick clouds, The 2wonders of one 3perfect in knowledge,17You whose garments are hot, When the land is still because of the south wind?18Can you, with Him, 4spread out the skies, Strong as a molten mirror?19Teach us what we shall say to Him; We 5cannot arrange our case because of darkness.20Shall it be told Him that I would speak? 6Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up?

21“Now 7men do not see the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind has passed and cleared them.22Out of the north comes golden splendor; Around God is awesome majesty.23The Almighty--8we cannot find Him; He is 9exalted in power And 10He will not do violence 11to justice and abundant righteousness.24Therefore men 12fear Him; He does not 13regard any who are wise of heart.”
