Job 37

Young's Literal Translation YLT

1 Also, at this my heart trembleth, And it moveth from its place.

2 Hearken diligently to the trembling of His voice, Yea, the sound from His mouth goeth forth.

3 Under the whole heavens He directeth it, And its light [is] over the skirts of the earth.

4 After it roar doth a voice -- He thundereth with the voice of His excellency, And He doth not hold them back, When His voice is heard.

5 God thundereth with His voice wonderfully, Doing great things and we know not.

6 For to snow He saith, `Be [on] the earth.' And the small rain and great rain of His power.

7 Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.

8 And enter doth the beast into covert, And in its habitations it doth continue.

9 From the inner chamber cometh a hurricane, And from scatterings winds -- cold,

10 From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is straitened,

11 Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.

12 And it is turning itself round by His counsels, For their doing all He commandeth them, On the face of the habitable earth.

13 Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness -- He doth cause it to come.

14 Hear this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.

15 Dost thou know when God doth place them, And caused to shine the light of His cloud?

16 Dost thou know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?

17 How thy garments [are] warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south?

18 Thou hast made an expanse with Him For the clouds -- strong as a hard mirror!

19 Let us know what we say to Him, We set not in array because of darkness.

20 Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man hath spoken, surely he is swallowed up.

21 And now, they have not seen the light, Bright it [is] in the clouds, And the wind hath passed by and cleanseth them.

22 From the golden north it cometh, Beside God [is] fearful honour.

23 The Mighty! we have not found Him out, High in power and judgment, He doth not answer! And abundant in righteousness,

24 Therefore do men fear Him, He seeth not any of the wise of heart.

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

1 My heart pounds at this and leaps from my chest.

2 Just listen to His thunderous voice and the rumbling that comes from His mouth.

3 He lets it loose beneath the entire sky; His lightning to the ends of the earth.

4 Then there comes a roaring sound; God thunders with His majestic voice. He does not restrain the lightning when His [rumbling] voice is heard.

5 God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things that we cannot comprehend.

6 For He says to the snow, "Fall to the earth," and the torrential rains, His mighty torrential rains,

7 serve as His signature to all mankind, so that all men may know His work.

8 The wild animals enter [their] lairs and stay in their dens.

9 The windstorm comes from its chamber, and the cold from the driving north winds.

10 Ice is formed by the breath of God, and watery expanses are frozen.

11 He saturates clouds with moisture; He scatters His lightning through them.

12 They swirl about, turning round and round at His direction, accomplishing everything He commands them over the surface of the inhabited world.

13 He causes this to happen for punishment, for His land, or for His faithful love.

14 Listen to this, Job. Stop and consider God's wonders.

15 Do you know how God directs His clouds or makes their lightning flash?

16 Do you understand how the clouds float, those wonderful works of Him who has perfect knowledge?

17 You whose clothes get hot when the south wind brings calm to the land,

18 can you help God spread out the skies as hard as a cast metal mirror?

19 Teach us what we should say to Him; we cannot prepare [our case] because of our darkness.

20 Should He be told that I want to speak? Can a man speak when he is confused?

21 Now men cannot [even] look at the sun when it is in the skies, after a wind has swept through and cleared them away.

22 Yet out of the north He comes, [shrouded] in a golden [glow]; awesome majesty surrounds Him.

23 The Almighty-we cannot reach Him- He is exalted in power! In His justice and righteousness, He will not oppress.

24 Therefore, men fear Him. He does not look favorably on any who are wise in heart.
