Job 37:6-22

6For he saith to the snowH7950, Fall thou on the earthH776; likewise to the showerH1653 of rainH4306, and to the showersH1653 of his mightyH5797 rainH4306.

7He sealeth upH2856 the handH3027 of everyH3605 manH376; that allH3605 menH376 whom he hath madeH3045 may knowH3045 it.

8Then the beastsH2416 goH935 intoH935 coverts, and remainH7931 in their densH4585.

9OutH4480 of the chamberH2315 of the southH2315 cometh the storm: and coldH7135 outH4480 of the north.

10By the breathH5397 of GodH410 iceH7140 is givenH5414: and the breadthH7341 of the watersH4325 is straitened.

11Yea, he ladeth the thickH5645 cloudH6051 with moistureH7377; he spreadeth abroad the cloudH6051 of his lightningH216:

12And it is turnedH2015 roundH4524 aboutH5921 by his guidanceH8458, that they may doH6680 whatsoeverH3605 he commandeth them uponH5921 the faceH6440 of the habitable worldH8398.

13WhetherH518 it be for correctionH7626, or for his landH776, or for mercy, that he cause it to comeH4672.

14Hearken unto this, O JobH347: standH5975 stillH5975, and considerH995 the wondrousH6381 worksH6381 of GodH410.

15Dost thou knowH3045 howH3045 GodH433 layeth his chargeH5921 uponH5921 them, and causeth the lightningH216 of his cloudH6051 to shineH3313?

16Dost thou knowH3045 the balancings of the cloudsH5645, the wondrous worksH5921 of him which is perfectH8549 in knowledgeH3045?

17HowH834 thy garmentsH899 are warmH2525, when the earthH776 is stillH8252 by reasonH834 of the southH1864 wind?

18Canst thou with him spreadH7554 outH3332 the skyH7834, which is strongH2389 as a moltenH3332 mirrorH7209?

19TeachH3045 usH3045 whatH4100 we shall sayH559 unto him; for we cannotH3808 orderH559 our speech by reason of darknessH2822.

20Shall it be toldH559 him that I would speakH1696? or should a manH376 wish that he were swallowedH1104 upH1104?

21And nowH6258 men seeH7200 notH3808 the lightH216 whichH1931 is brightH925 in the skiesH7834: but the windH7307 passeth, and cleanseth them.

22OutH5921 of the northH6828 cometh goldenH2091 splendour: GodH433 hath uponH5921 him terrible majestyH1935.
