1Aye, my heart trembleth at this also, and leapeth up out of its place:
1At this my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
2Hear attentively the roar of his voice, and the murmur going forth from his mouth.
2Hear ye attentively the terror of his voice, and the sound that cometh out of his mouth.
3He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.
3He beholdeth under all the heavens, and his light is upon the ends of the earth.
4After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency, and holdeth not back the flashes when his voice is heard.
4After it a noise shall roar, he shall thunder with the voice of his majesty, and shall not be found out, when his voice shall be heard.
5God thundereth marvellously with his voice, doing great things which we do not comprehend.
5God shall thunder wonderfully with his voice, he that doth great and unsearchable things.
6For he saith to the snow, Fall on the earth! and to the pouring rain, even the pouring rains of his might.
6He commandeth the snow to go down upon the earth, and the winter rain, and the shower of his strength.
7He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
7He sealeth up the hand of all men, that every one may know his works.
8And the wild beast goeth into its lair, and they remain in their dens.
8Then the beast shall go into his covert, and shall abide in his den.
9From the chamber [of the south] cometh the whirlwind; and cold from the winds of the north.
9Out of the inner parts shall a tempest come, and cold out of the north.
10By the breath ofGod ice is given; and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
10When God bloweth there cometh frost, and again the waters are poured out abundantly.
11Also with plentiful moisture he loadeth the thick clouds, his light dispels the cloud;
11Corn desireth clouds, and the clouds spread their light:
12And 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,
12Which go round about, whithersoever the will of him that governeth them shall lead them, to whatsoever he shall command them upon the face of the whole earth:
13Whether he cause it to come as a rod, or for his land, or in mercy.
13Whether in one tribe, or in his own land, or in what place soever of his mercy he shall command them to be found.
14Hearken unto this, Job; stand still and discern the wondrous works ofGod.
14Hearken to these things, Job: Stand, and consider the wondrous works of God.
15Dost thou know howGod hath disposed them, and how he causeth the lightning of his cloud to flash?
15Dost thou know when God commanded the rains, to shew his light of his clouds?
16Dost thou know about the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him that is perfect in knowledge?
16Knowest thou the great paths of the clouds, and the perfect knowledges?
17How thy garments become warm when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
17Are not thy garments hot, when the south wind blows upon the earth?
18Hast thou with him spread out the sky, firm, like a molten mirror?
18Thou perhaps hast made the heavens with him, which are most strong, as if they were of molten brass.
19Teach us what we shall say unto him! We cannot order [our words] by reason of darkness.
19Shew us what we may say to him: or we are wrapped up in darkness.
20Shall it be told him if I would speak? if a man [so] say, surely he shall be swallowed up.
20Who shall tell him the things I speak? even if a man shall speak, he shall be swallowed up.
21And now [men] see not the light as it gleameth, it is [hidden] in the skies. But the wind passeth by and cleareth them.
21But now they see not the light: the air on a sudden shall be thickened into clouds, and the wind shall pass and drive them away.
22From the north cometh gold; withGod is terrible majesty.
22Cold cometh out of the north, and to God praise with fear.
