¹⁰ By the breath of God ice is given; And the breadth of the waters is straitened.

²⁹ Out of whose womb came the ice? And the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?

³⁰ The waters hide themselves `and become' like stone, And the face of the deep is frozen.

⁴⁷ He destroyed their vines with hail, And their sycomore-trees with frost.

¹⁶ He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.

¹⁷ He casteth forth his ice like morsels: Who can stand before his cold?

¹⁸ He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
