Job 36:20-30

KJV

NIV

20 Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
20 Do not long for the night, to drag people away from their homes.
21 Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
21 Beware of turning to evil, which you seem to prefer to affliction.
22 Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?
22 “God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him?
23 Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity?
23 Who has prescribed his ways for him, or said to him, ‘You have done wrong’?
24 Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
24 Remember to extol his work, which people have praised in song.
25 Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.
25 All humanity has seen it; mortals gaze on it from afar.
26 Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.
26 How great is God—beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out.
27 For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
27 “He draws up the drops of water, which distill as rain to the streams ;
28 Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly.
28 the clouds pour down their moisture and abundant showers fall on mankind.
29 Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle?
29 Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds, how he thunders from his pavilion?
30 Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea.
30 See how he scatters his lightning about him, bathing the depths of the sea.
