Job - Chapter 37 | King James Version (KJV)

  • 1. At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.
  • 2. Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound {cf15I that} goeth out of his mouth.
  • 3. He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.
  • 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.
  • 5. God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.
  • 6. For he saith to the snow, Be thou {cf15I on} the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
  • 7. He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
  • 8. Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places.
  • 9. Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north.
  • 10. By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
  • 11. Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud:
  • 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.
  • 13. He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
  • 14. Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
  • 15. Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
  • 16. Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
  • 17. How thy garments {cf15I are} warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south {cf15I wind}?
  • 18. Hast thou with him spread out the sky, {cf15I which is} strong, {cf15I and} as a molten looking glass?
  • 19. Teach us what we shall say unto him; {cf15I for} we cannot order {cf15I our speech} by reason of darkness.
  • 20. Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.
  • 21. And now {cf15I men} see not the bright light which {cf15I is} in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
  • 22. Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God {cf15I is} terrible majesty.
  • 23. {cf15I Touching} the Almighty, we cannot find him out: {cf15I he is} excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.
  • 24. Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any {cf15I that are} wise of heart.
