LITV - Job - 37

37:1  My heart also trembles at this, and it leaps from its place.

37:2  Listen carefully to the thunder of His voice, and the rumbling that comes out from His mouth.

37:3  He lets it loose under the whole heavens, and His lightning to the wings of the earth.

37:4  After it, a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice; and He will not hold them back when His voice is heard.

37:5  God thunders wondrously with His voice; He does great things, and we do not know.

37:6  For He says to the snow, Fall on the earth; also to the shower of rain, and the shower of heavy rains.

37:7  He seals up the hand of every man, so that all men may know His work.

37:8  Then the beast goes into its lair, and they stay in their dens.

37:9  Out of the storeroom comes the tempest, and cold from scattering winds.

37:10  Ice is given by God's breath, and the expanse of waters is frozen.

37:11  Yea, He loads the cloud with moisture; He scatters His lightning cloud;

37:12  and it is turned around by His guidance, so that they may do whatever He commands them on the face of the world of the earth.

37:13  Whether as a whip, or for His land, or for mercy, He finds it.

37:14  Listen to this, O Job; stand still and consider the wonderful works of God.

37:15  Do you know when God placed them, and caused the lightning of His cloud to shine?

37:16  Do you know the balance of the clouds, the wonderful works of Him who is perfect in knowledge,

37:17  you whose garments are warm when the earth is still from the south wind?

37:18  Can you beat out the expanse with Him, hard like a cast mirror?

37:19  Make us know what we shall say to Him; for we cannot arrange our case because of darkness.

37:20  Shall it be told to Him that I would speak? If a man speaks, surely he will be swallowed up.

37:21  And now men cannot look upon the light when it is bright in the clouds; when the wind has passed and cleared them.

37:22  Golden splendor comes out of the north; God is awesome in His majesty.

37:23  We cannot find Him, the Almighty; He is exalted in power; and He does not violate justice and abundant righteousness.

37:24  So, men, fear Him; He does not regard any who are wise of heart.
