Job 38:22-38
22Hast thou entered into the treasuries of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasuries of the hail, 23Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war? 24By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?
25Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder; 26To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, in which there is no man; 27To satisfy the desolate and waste ground ; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth? 28Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of the dew? 29Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it? 30The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.1 31Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?23 32Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in its season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with its sons?45 33Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set its dominion on the earth? 34Canst thou lift thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee? 35Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say to thee, Here we are ?6 36Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart? 37Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can pour out the water bottles of heaven,7 38When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together?8
