^{1 Ref} Yea, at this my heart trembleth, And is moved out of its place.

^{2 Ref} Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, And the sound that goeth out of his mouth.

^{3 Ref} He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, And his lightening unto the ends of the earth.

^{4 Ref} After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of his majesty; And he restraineth not `the lightnings' when his voice is heard.

^{5 Ref} God thundereth marvellously with his voice; Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.

^{6 Ref} For he saith to the snow, Fall thou on the earth; Likewise to the shower of rain, And to the showers of his mighty rain.

^{7 Ref} He sealeth up the hand of every man, That all men whom he hath made may know `it'.

^{8 Ref} Then the beasts go into coverts, And remain in their dens.

^{9 Ref} Out of the chamber `of the south' cometh the storm, And cold out of the north.

^{10 Ref} By the breath of God ice is given; And the breadth of the waters is straitened.

^{11 Ref} Yea, he ladeth the thick cloud with moisture; He spreadeth abroad the cloud of his lightning:

^{12 Ref} And it is turned round about by his guidance, That they may do whatsoever he commandeth them Upon the face of the habitable world,

^{13 Ref} Whether it be for correction, or for his land, Or for lovingkindness, that he cause it to come.

^{14 Ref} Hearken unto this, O Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

^{15 Ref} Dost thou know how God layeth `his charge' upon them, And causeth the lightning of his cloud to shine?

^{16 Ref} Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?

^{17 Ref} How thy garments are warm, When the earth is still by reason of the south `wind'?

^{18 Ref} Canst thou with him spread out the sky, Which is strong as a molten mirror?

^{19 Ref} Teach us what we shall say unto him; `For' we cannot set `our speech' in order by reason of darkness.

^{20 Ref} Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

^{21 Ref} And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind passeth, and cleareth them.

^{22 Ref} Out of the north cometh golden splendor: God hath upon him terrible majesty.

^{23 Ref} `Touching' the Almighty, we cannot find him out He is excellent in power; And in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict.

^{24 Ref} Men do therefore fear him: He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.

^{1 Ref} Also, at this my heart trembleth, And it moveth from its place.

^{2 Ref} Hearken diligently to the trembling of His voice, Yea, the sound from His mouth goeth forth.

^{3 Ref} Under the whole heavens He directeth it, And its light `is' over the skirts of the earth.

^{4 Ref} After it roar doth a voice -- He thundereth with the voice of His excellency, And He doth not hold them back, When His voice is heard.

^{5 Ref} God thundereth with His voice wonderfully, Doing great things and we know not.

^{6 Ref} For to snow He saith, `Be `on' the earth.' And the small rain and great rain of His power.

^{7 Ref} Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.

^{8 Ref} And enter doth the beast into covert, And in its habitations it doth continue.

^{9 Ref} From the inner chamber cometh a hurricane, And from scatterings winds -- cold,

^{10 Ref} From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is straitened,

^{11 Ref} Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.

^{12 Ref} And it is turning itself round by His counsels, For their doing all He commandeth them, On the face of the habitable earth.

^{13 Ref} Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness -- He doth cause it to come.

^{14 Ref} Hear this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.

^{15 Ref} Dost thou know when God doth place them, And caused to shine the light of His cloud?

^{16 Ref} Dost thou know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?

^{17 Ref} How thy garments `are' warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south?

^{18 Ref} Thou hast made an expanse with Him For the clouds -- strong as a hard mirror!

^{19 Ref} Let us know what we say to Him, We set not in array because of darkness.

^{20 Ref} Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man hath spoken, surely he is swallowed up.

^{21 Ref} And now, they have not seen the light, Bright it `is' in the clouds, And the wind hath passed by and cleanseth them.

^{22 Ref} From the golden north it cometh, Beside God `is' fearful honour.

^{23 Ref} The Mighty! we have not found Him out, High in power and judgment, He doth not answer! And abundant in righteousness,

^{24 Ref} Therefore do men fear Him, He seeth not any of the wise of heart.
