Job 37

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 At this my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.

2 Hear ye attentively the terror of his voice, and the sound that cometh out of his mouth.

3 He beholdeth under all the heavens, and his light is upon the ends of the earth.

4 After it a noise shall roar, he shall thunder with the voice of his majesty, and shall not be found out, when his voice shall be heard.

5 God shall thunder wonderfully with his voice, he that doth great and unsearchable things.

6 He commandeth the snow to go down upon the earth, and the winter rain, and the shower of his strength.

7 He sealeth up the hand of all men, that every one may know his works.

8 Then the beast shall go into his covert, and shall abide in his den.

9 Out of the inner parts shall a tempest come, and cold out of the north.

10 When God bloweth there cometh frost, and again the waters are poured out abundantly.

11 Corn desireth clouds, and the clouds spread their light:

12 Which go round about, whithersoever the will of him that governeth them shall lead them, to whatsoever he shall command them upon the face of the whole earth:

13 Whether in one tribe, or in his own land, or in what place soever of his mercy he shall command them to be found.

14 Hearken to these things, Job: Stand, and consider the wondrous works of God.

15 Dost thou know when God commanded the rains, to shew his light of his clouds?

16 Knowest thou the great paths of the clouds, and the perfect knowledges?

17 Are not thy garments hot, when the south wind blows upon the earth?

18 Thou perhaps hast made the heavens with him, which are most strong, as if they were of molten brass.

19 Shew us what we may say to him: or we are wrapped up in darkness.

20 Who shall tell him the things I speak? even if a man shall speak, he shall be swallowed up.

21 But now they see not the light: the air on a sudden shall be thickened into clouds, and the wind shall pass and drive them away.

22 Cold cometh out of the north, and to God praise with fear.

23 We cannot find him worthily: he is great in strength, and in judgment, and in justice, and he is ineffable.

24 Therefore men shall fear him, and all that seem to themselves to be wise, shall not dare to behold him.

New International Version NIV

1 “At this my heart pounds and leaps from its place.

2 Listen! Listen to the roar of his voice, to the rumbling that comes from his mouth.

3 He unleashes his lightning beneath the whole heaven and sends it to the ends of the earth.

4 After that comes the sound of his roar; he thunders with his majestic voice. When his voice resounds, he holds nothing back.

5 God’s voice thunders in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding.

6 He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth,’ and to the rain shower, ‘Be a mighty downpour.’

7 So that everyone he has made may know his work, he stops all people from their labor.

8 The animals take cover; they remain in their dens.

9 The tempest comes out from its chamber, the cold from the driving winds.

10 The breath of God produces ice, and the broad waters become frozen.

11 He loads the clouds with moisture; he scatters his lightning through them.

12 At his direction they swirl around over the face of the whole earth to do whatever he commands them.

13 He brings the clouds to punish people, or to water his earth and show his love.

14 “Listen to this, Job; stop and consider God’s wonders.

15 Do you know how God controls the clouds and makes his lightning flash?

16 Do you know how the clouds hang poised, those wonders of him who has perfect knowledge?

17 You who swelter in your clothes when the land lies hushed under the south wind,

18 can you join him in spreading out the skies, hard as a mirror of cast bronze?

19 “Tell us what we should say to him; we cannot draw up our case because of our darkness.

20 Should he be told that I want to speak? Would anyone ask to be swallowed up?

21 Now no one can look at the sun, bright as it is in the skies after the wind has swept them clean.

22 Out of the north he comes in golden splendor; God comes in awesome majesty.

23 The Almighty is beyond our reach and exalted in power; in his justice and great righteousness, he does not oppress.

24 Therefore, people revere him, for does he not have regard for all the wise in heart? ”
