New Testament

Job 37:16-23 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

16. Do you know how the clouds stay up in the sky? Do you understand the wonders of the One who has perfect knowledge?

17. Even your clothes are too hot for you when the land lies quiet under the south wind.

18. Can you help God spread out the skies? They are as hard as a mirror that's made out of bronze.

19. "Job, tell us what we should say to God. We can't prepare our case because our minds are dark.

20. Should he be told that I want to speak? Would any man ask to be destroyed by him?

21. No one can look at the sun. It's too bright after the wind has swept the skies clean.

22. Out of the north, God comes in his shining glory. He comes in all of his wonderful majesty.

23. We can't reach up to the Mighty One. He is lifted high because of his power. Everything he does is fair and right. So he doesn't crush people.
