Job 37:6-21 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

6. For he saith to the snow, Fall on the earth! and to the pouring rain, even the pouring rains of his might.

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

8. And the wild beast goeth into its lair, and they remain in their dens.

9. From the chamber of the south cometh the whirlwind; and cold from the winds of the north.

10. By the breath of ·God ice is given; and the breadth of the waters is straitened.

11. Also with plentiful moisture he loadeth the thick clouds, his light dispels the cloud;

12. And they are turned every way by his guidance, that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the circuit of the earth,

13. Whether he cause it to come as a rod, or for his land, or in mercy.

14. Hearken unto this, Job; stand still and discern the wondrous works of ·God

15. Dost thou know how +God hath disposed them, and how he causeth the lightning of his cloud to flash?

16. Dost thou know about the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him that is perfect in knowledge?

17. How thy garments become warm when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?

18. Hast thou with him spread out the sky, firm, like a molten mirror?

19. Teach us what we shall say unto him! We cannot order our words by reason of darkness.

20. Shall it be told him if I would speak? if a man so say, surely he shall be swallowed up.

21. And now men see not the light as it gleameth, it is hidden in the skies. But the wind passeth by and cleareth them.
