¹“At this also my heart trembles,
And leaps from its place.
²Hear attentively the thunder of His voice,
And the rumbling that comes from His mouth.
³He sends it forth under the whole heaven,
His lightning to the ends of the earth.
⁴After it ⚓a voice roars;
He thunders with His majestic voice,
And He does not restrain them when His voice is heard.
⁵God thunders marvelously with His voice;
⚓He does great things which we cannot comprehend.
⁶For ⚓He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth’;
Likewise to the gentle rain and the heavy rain of His strength.
⁷He seals the hand of every man,
⚓That ⚓all men may know His work.
⁸The beasts ⚓go into dens,
And remain in their lairs.
⁹From the chamber of the south comes the whirlwind,
And cold from the scattering winds of the north.
¹⁰⚓By the breath of God ice is given,
And the broad waters are frozen.
¹¹Also with moisture He saturates the thick clouds;
He scatters His bright clouds.
¹²And they swirl about, being turned by His guidance,
That they may ⚓do whatever He commands them
On the face of the whole earth.
¹³⚓He causes it to come,
Whether for correction,
Or ⚓for His land,
Or ⚓for mercy.
¹⁴“Listen to this, O Job;
Stand still and ⚓consider the wondrous works of God.
¹⁵Do you know when God dispatches them,
And causes the light of His cloud to shine?
¹⁶⚓Do you know how the clouds are balanced,
Those wondrous works of ⚓Him who is perfect in knowledge?
¹⁷Why are your garments hot,
When He quiets the earth by the south wind?
¹⁸With Him, have you ⚓spread out the ⚓skies,
Strong as a cast metal mirror?
¹⁹“Teach us what we should say to Him,
For we can prepare nothing because of the darkness.
²⁰Should He be told that I wish to speak?
If a man were to speak, surely he would be swallowed up.
²¹Even now men cannot look at the light when it is bright in the skies,
When the wind has passed and cleared them.
²²He comes from the north as golden splendor;
With God is awesome majesty.
²³As for the Almighty, ⚓we cannot find Him;
⚓He is excellent in power,
In judgment and abundant justice;
He does not oppress.
²⁴Therefore men ⚓fear Him;
He shows no partiality to any who are⚓wise of heart.”
