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

⁴ For truly my words are not false: One that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.

⁸ He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them.

²⁹ Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, The thunderings of his pavilion?

² Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment; Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain;

³ Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters; Who maketh the clouds his chariot; Who walketh upon the wings of the wind;

²⁴ O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: The earth is full of thy riches.

⁵ Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.

¹⁹ Jehovah by wisdom founded the earth; By understanding he established the heavens.

²⁰ By his knowledge the depths were broken up, And the skies drop down the dew.

²² `It is' he that sitteth above the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in;

¹² He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding hath he stretched out the heavens:

¹³ when he uttereth his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.
