²⁹ And who has knowledge of how the clouds are stretched out, or of the thunders of his tent?

¹⁶ Have you knowledge of the balancings of the clouds, the wonders of him who has all wisdom?

² Give ear to the rolling noise of his voice; to the hollow sound which goes out of his mouth.

³ He sends it out through all the heaven, and his thunder-flame to the ends of the earth.

⁴ After it a voice is sounding, thundering out the word of his power; he does not keep back his thunder-flames; from his mouth his voice is sounding.

⁵ He does wonders, more than may be searched out; great things of which we have no knowledge;

¹⁰ The mountains saw you and were moved with fear; the clouds were streaming with water: the voice of the deep was sounding; the sun did not come up, and the moon kept still in her place.

³ The Lord is slow to get angry and great in power, and will not let the sinner go without punishment: the way of the Lord is in the wind and the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

⁷ At the voice of your word they went in flight; at the sound of your thunder they went away in fear;

³ The arch of your house is based on the waters; you make the clouds your carriage; you go on the wings of the wind:

¹⁶ The waters saw you, O God; the waters saw you, they were in fear: even the deep was troubled.

¹⁷ The clouds sent out water; the skies gave out a sound; truly, your arrows went far and wide.

¹⁸ The voice of your thunder went rolling on; the world was flaming with the light of the storm; the earth was shaking.

¹⁹ Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps.

³ The voice of the Lord is on the waters: the God of glory is thundering, the Lord is on the great waters.

⁴ The voice of the Lord is full of power; the voice of the Lord has a noble sound.

⁵ By the voice of the Lord are the cedar-trees broken, even the cedars of Lebanon are broken by the Lord.

⁶ He makes them go jumping about like a young ox; Lebanon and Sirion like a young mountain ox.

⁷ At the voice of the Lord flames of fire are seen.

⁸ At the voice of the Lord there is a shaking in the waste land, even a shaking in the waste land of Kadesh.

⁹ At the voice of the Lord the roes give birth, the leaves are taken from the trees: in his Temple everything says, Glory.

¹⁰ The Lord had his seat as king when the waters came on the earth; the Lord is seated as king for ever.

¹³ The Lord made thunder in the heavens, and the voice of the Highest was sounding out: a rain of ice and fire.

³⁷ By whose wisdom are the clouds numbered, or the water-skins of the heavens turned to the earth,

⁹ When I made the cloud its robe, and put thick clouds as bands round it,

¹⁴ See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.

⁴⁴ And the seventh time he said, I see a cloud coming up out of the sea, as small as a man's hand. Then he said, Go up and say to Ahab, Get your carriage ready and go down or the rain will keep you back.

⁴⁵ And after a very little time, the heaven became black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab went in his carriage to Jezreel.
