  • 1. At this also my heart is astonied, and moued out of his place.
  • 2. Heare then the sounde of his voyce, & the noyse that goeth out of his mouth.
  • 3. He directeth it vnder the whole heauen, and his light vnto the endes of the worlde.
  • 4. A roring voyce foloweth it: for his glorious maiestie geueth a thuder clappe, & he will not stay whe his voyce is heard.
  • 5. God thundreth marueylously with his voyce, great thinges doth he which we can not comprehend.
  • 6. He commaundeth the snow, and it falleth vpon earth: he geueth the rayne a charge, and the showres haue their strength and fall downe.
  • 7. With the force of the rayne he shutteth men vp, that all men may knowe his workes.
  • 8. The beastes creepe into their dennes, and remaine in their places.
  • 9. Out of the south commeth the tempest, and colde out from the north winde.
  • 10. At the breath of God the hoare frost is geuen, and the brode waters are frosen.
  • 11. He maketh the cloudes to labour in geuing moystnesse, and againe with his light he dryueth away the cloude.
  • 12. He turneth the heauens about by his gouernement, that they may do whatsoeuer he commaundeth them vpon the whole worlde.
  • 13. Whether it be for punishment, or for his lande, or to do good to them that seeke him.
  • 14. Hearken vnto this O Iob, stand still, and consider the wonderous workes of God.
  • 15. Didst thou know when God disposed them? & caused the light of his cloudes to shine?
  • 16. Hast thou knowen the varietie of the cloudes, and the wonderous workes of him which is perfect in knowledge?
  • 17. And how thy clothes are warme, when the lande is stil through the south winde?
  • 18. Hast thou helped him to spreade out the heauens which are strong and bright as a loking glasse?
  • 19. Teache vs what we shall saye vnto him: for we are vnmeete to frame our talke because of darkenesse.
  • 20. Shall it be tolde him what I saye? Shall man speake when he shalbe destroyed?
  • 21. For men see not the light that shineth in the cloudes: but the winde passeth and cleanseth them.
  • 22. The faire weather commeth out of the north, the prayse thereof is to God who is terrible.
  • 23. It is the almightie, we can not finde him out: he is excellent in power and iudgement, and aboundaunt in iustice: he afflicteth not.
  • 24. Let men therefore feare him: for there shall no man see him that is wyse in his owne conceit.
