| 1 | "Yes, at this my heart trembles, and is moved out of its place. |
| 2 | Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, the sound that goes out of his mouth. |
| 3 | He sends it forth under the whole sky, and his lightning to the ends of the earth. |
| 4 | After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty. He doesn't hold back anything when his voice is heard. |
| 5 | God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things, which we can't comprehend. |
| 6 | For he says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth;' likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of his mighty rain. |
| 7 | He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he has made may know it. |
| 8 | Then the animals take cover, and remain in their dens. |
| 9 | Out of its room comes the storm, and cold out of the north. |
| 10 | By the breath of God, ice is given, and the breadth of the waters is frozen. |
| 11 | Yes, he loads the thick cloud with moisture. He spreads abroad the cloud of his lightning. |
| 12 | It is turned around by his guidance, that they may do whatever he commands them on the surface of the habitable world, |
| 13 | Whether it is for correction, or for his land, or for loving kindness, that he causes it to come. |
| 14 | "Listen to this, Job. Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. |
| 15 | Do you know how God controls them, and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine? |
| 16 | Do you know the workings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge? |
| 17 | You whose clothing is warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind? |
| 18 | Can you, with him, spread out the sky, which is strong as a cast metal mirror? |
| 19 | Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can't make our case by reason of darkness. |
| 20 | Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up? |
| 21 | Now men don't see the light which is bright in the skies, but the wind passes, and clears them. |
| 22 | Out of the north comes golden splendor. With God is awesome majesty. |
| 23 | We can't reach the Almighty. He is exalted in power. In justice and great righteousness, he will not oppress. |
| 24 | Therefore men revere him. He doesn't regard any who are wise of heart." |
