The Book of Job 37

Text size Chapter

¹ At this also my heart trembleth and is moved out of his place ⚑

² Hear attentively the noise of his voice and the sound that goeth out of his mouth ⚑

³ He directeth it under the whole heaven and his lightning unto the ends of the earth ⚑

⁴ After it a voice roareth he thundereth with the voice of his excellency and he will not stay them when his voice is heard ⚑

⁶ For he saith to the snow Be thou on the earth likewise to the small rain and to the great rain of his strength ⚑

⁷ He sealeth up the hand of every man that all men may know his work ⚑

⁹ Out of the south cometh the whirlwind and cold out of the north ⚑

¹² And it is turned round about by his counsels that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth ⚑

¹³ He causeth it to come whether for correction or for his land or for mercy ⚑

¹⁴ Hearken unto this O Job stand still and consider the wondrous works of God ⚑

¹⁵ Dost thou know when God disposed them and caused the light of his cloud to shine ⚑

¹⁶ Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge ⚑

¹⁷ How thy garments are warm when he quieteth the earth by the south wind ⚑

¹⁸ Hast thou with him spread out the sky which is strong and as a molten looking glass ⚑

¹⁹ Teach us what we shall say unto him for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness ⚑

²⁰ Shall it be told him that I speak if a man speak surely he shall be swallowed up ⚑

²¹ And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds but the wind passeth and cleanseth them ⚑

²³ Touching the Almighty we cannot find him out he is excellent in power and in judgment and in plenty of justice he will not afflict ⚑

²⁴ Men do therefore fear him he respecteth not any that are wise of heart ⚑
