13. God sends rain to water the earth;he may send it to punish us,or to show us his favour.

14. Pause a moment, Job, and listen;consider the wonderful things God does.

15. Do you know how God gives the commandand makes lightning flash from the clouds?

16. Do you know how clouds float in the sky,the work of God's amazing skill?

17. No, you can only suffer in the heatwhen the south wind oppresses the land.

18. Can you help God stretch out the skyand make it as hard as polished metal?

19. Teach us what to say to God;our minds are blank; we have nothing to say.

20. I won't ask to speak with God;why should I give him a chance to destroy me?

21. And now the light in the sky is dazzling,too bright for us to look at it;and the sky has been swept clean by the wind.
