[[Job 36|<< Job 36]] | [[Job|Job]] | [[Job 38|Job 38 >>]] ### Job 37 1 AT this also my heart trembles, and is moved out of his place. ^1 2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound _that_ goes out of his mouth. ^2 3 He directs it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth. ^3 4 After it a voice roars: he thunders with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard. ^4 5 God thunders marvelously with his voice; great things does he, which we cannot comprehend. ^5 6 For he saith to the snow, Be thou _on_ the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. ^6 7 He seals up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work. ^7 8 Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places. ^8 9 Out of the south comes the whirlwind: and cold out of the north. ^9 10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened. ^10 11 Also by watering he wearies the thick cloud: he scatters his bright cloud: ^11 12 And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commands them upon the face of the world in the earth. ^12 13 He causes it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy. ^13 14 Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. ^14 15 Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine? ^15 16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge? ^16 17 How thy garments _are_ warm, when he quiets the earth by the south _wind?_ ^17 18 Hast thou with him spread out the sky, _which_ _is_ strong, _and_ as a molten looking glass? ^18 19 Teach us what we shall say unto him; _for_ we cannot order _our_ _speech_ by reason of darkness. ^19 20 Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up. ^20 21 And now _men_ see not the bright light which _is_ in the clouds: but the wind passes, and cleanses them. ^21 22 Fair weather comes out of the north: with God _is_ terrible majesty. ^22 23 _Touching_ the Almighty, we cannot find him out: _he_ _is_ excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict. ^23 24 Men do therefore fear him: he respects not any _that_ _are_ wise of heart. ^24
