Chapter
37
- 37:1
- At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his
place.
- 37:2
- Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that
goeth out of his mouth.
- 37:3
- He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning
unto the ends of the earth.
- 37:4
- After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of
his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is
heard.
- 37:5
- God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things
doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.
- 37:6
- For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise
to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
- 37:7
- He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know
his work.
- 37:8
- Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
- 37:9
- Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the
north.
- 37:10
- By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the
waters is straitened.
- 37:11
- Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth
his bright cloud:
- 37:12
- And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may
do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world
in the earth.
- 37:13
- He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his
land, or for mercy.
- 37:14
- Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous
works of God.
- 37:15
- Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light
of his cloud to shine?
- 37:16
- Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous
works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
- 37:17
- How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by
the south wind?
- 37:18
- Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and
as a molten looking glass?
- 37:19
- Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order
our speech by reason of darkness.
- 37:20
- Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely
he shall be swallowed up.
- 37:21
- And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds:
but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
- 37:22
- Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible
majesty.
- 37:23
- Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent
in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will
not afflict.
- 37:24
- Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are
wise of heart.
