Job 37
Common English Bible
37 Oh, my mind is disturbed by this
    and is more troubled than usual.
2 Listen closely to the rumble of his voice,
    the roar issuing from his mouth.
3 He looses it under the whole sky,
    his lightning on earth’s edges.
4 After it, a voice roars;
    he thunders with a mighty voice,
    and no one can stop it
    when his voice is heard.
5 God roars with his wondrous voice;
    he does great things we can’t know.
6 He says to the snow, “Fall to earth,”
    and to the downpour of rain, “Be a mighty shower.”
7 He stamps the hand of every person
    so all can know his work.[a]
8 The wild beast enters its lair,
    lies down in its den.
9 The storm comes from its chamber,
    the cold from the north wind.
10 By God’s breath ice forms;
    water’s expanse becomes solid.
11 He also fills clouds with moisture;
    his lightning scatters clouds.
12 He overturns the circling clouds;[b]
    by his guidance they do[c] their work,
    doing everything he commands over the entire earth.
13 Whether for punishment, for his world,
        or for kindness,
    God makes it all happen.
14 Hear this, Job;
    stop and ponder God’s mighty deeds.
15 Do you realize that when God commands them,
    his clouds produce lightning?
16 Do you understand the positioning of the clouds,
    the amazing deeds of one with perfect knowledge,
17 you whose clothes are hot
    when earth is calmed by the south wind?
18 Can you form the sky with him,
    hard like a mirror made of metal?
19 Tell us what we should say to him;
    we can’t present our case due to darkness.
20 Should someone inform him that I wish to speak,
    or would anyone say he wants to be devoured?
Divine splendor
21 For now, no one can look at the sun;
    it is bright in the sky;
        the wind has passed and cleared away the clouds.
22 From the north comes golden light,
    the awesome splendor of God.
23 As for the Almighty, we can’t find him—
    he is powerful and just, abundantly righteous—
    he won’t respond.
24 Therefore, people fear him;
    none of the wise[d] can see him.
Job 37
King James Version
37 At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound 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 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 are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
18 Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?
19 Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order 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 men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
22 Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty.
23 Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: 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 that are wise of heart.
Job 37
Ang Pulong Sa Dios
37 “Magkubakuba ang akong dughan tungod niana nga bagyo. 2 Pamatia ninyo ang tingog sa Dios nga nagdahunog. 3 Gipakilat niya ang kalangitan ug mikilab kini hangtod sa kinatumyan sa kalibotan. 4 Unya madungog ang dahunog sa iyang makusog nga tingog. Ug dili niya kini pugngan. 5 Katingalahan kaayong nagdahunog ang tingog sa Dios. Nagahimo siya ug katingalahang mga butang nga dili nato matugkad. 6 Gimandoan niya ang snow nga mahulog sa yuta ug gipabunok ang ulan, 7 aron makapahulay ang mga tawo sa ilang trabaho ug makapamalandong sa gihimo sa Dios. 8 Ang mga mananap manago sa ilang tagoanan ug magpabilin sila didto panahon sa bagyo. 9 Ang makusog ug bugnaw nga hangin nagagikan sa ilang tagoanan. 10 Sa pagginhawa sa Dios maporma ang ice, ug ang halapad nga katubigan mag-ice. 11 Pun-on niya ug tubig ang kapanganoran, ug gipakilat kini. 12 Maglibot-libot ang mga panganod sa tibuok kalibotan sunod sa mando sa Dios. 13 Nagapadala ang Dios sa makusog nga ulan aron sa paghatag ug tubig sa yuta, o sa pagdisiplina sa tawo, o sa pagpakita sa iyang gugma.
14 “Pamatia kini, Job, ug pamalandongi ang katingalahan nga mga butang nga gihimo sa Dios. 15 Nahibalo ka ba kon giunsa pagpahimutang sa Dios ang mga panganod ug kon giunsa niya pagpakilab ang kilat? 16 Nahibalo ka ba kon giunsa paglutaw sa mga panganod? Buhat kini sa katingalahan nga Dios nga labihan kamaalamon. 17 Ikaw gani panington tungod sa init nga hangin gikan sa habagatan, 18 makatabang ka ba sa Dios sa pagbukhad sa mga panganod ug sa pagpagahi niini sama sa espeho nga bronsi? 19 Kon maalamon ka, tudloi kami kon unsay angay namong isulti sa Dios. Dili kami kahibalo kon unsaon namo pagpangatarungan kay blangko ang among hunahuna. 20 Dili ako moingon sa Dios nga makiglalis ako kaniya, kay tingalig laglagon niya ako. 21 Walay tawo nga makatutok sa adlaw human mahawani sa hangin ang mga panganod ang kalangitan, kay sulaw kini kaayo. 22 Gikan sa amihan mogawas ang Dios nga nagasidlak sama sa bulawan ug ang iyang kasulaw katingalahan. 23 Dili nato matugkad ang Makagagahom nga Dios nga labing gamhanan. Matarong gayod siya ug dili mangdaog-daog, 24 busa gitahod siya sa mga tawo. Dili niya tagdon ang mga tawo nga nagaisip sa ilang kaugalingon nga mga maalamon.”
Job 37
New International Version
37 “At this my heart pounds(A)
    and leaps from its place.
2 Listen!(B) Listen to the roar of his voice,(C)
    to the rumbling that comes from his mouth.(D)
3 He unleashes his lightning(E) beneath the whole heaven
    and sends it to the ends of the earth.(F)
4 After that comes the sound of his roar;
    he thunders(G) with his majestic voice.(H)
When his voice resounds,
    he holds nothing back.
5 God’s voice thunders(I) in marvelous ways;(J)
    he does great things beyond our understanding.(K)
6 He says to the snow,(L) ‘Fall on the earth,’
    and to the rain shower, ‘Be a mighty downpour.’(M)
7 So that everyone he has made may know his work,(N)
    he stops all people from their labor.[a](O)
8 The animals take cover;(P)
    they remain in their dens.(Q)
9 The tempest comes out from its chamber,(R)
    the cold from the driving winds.(S)
10 The breath of God produces ice,
    and the broad waters become frozen.(T)
11 He loads the clouds with moisture;(U)
    he scatters his lightning(V) through them.(W)
12 At his direction they swirl around
    over the face of the whole earth
    to do whatever he commands them.(X)
13 He brings the clouds to punish people,(Y)
    or to water his earth and show his love.(Z)
14 “Listen(AA) to this, Job;
    stop and consider God’s wonders.(AB)
15 Do you know how God controls the clouds
    and makes his lightning(AC) flash?(AD)
16 Do you know how the clouds hang poised,(AE)
    those wonders of him who has perfect knowledge?(AF)
17 You who swelter in your clothes
    when the land lies hushed under the south wind,(AG)
18 can you join him in spreading out the skies,(AH)
    hard as a mirror of cast bronze?(AI)
19 “Tell us what we should say to him;(AJ)
    we cannot draw up our case(AK) because of our darkness.(AL)
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,(AM)
    bright as it is in the skies
    after the wind has swept them clean.
22 Out of the north he comes in golden splendor;(AN)
    God comes in awesome majesty.(AO)
23 The Almighty is beyond our reach and exalted in power;(AP)
    in his justice(AQ) and great righteousness, he does not oppress.(AR)
24 Therefore, people revere him,(AS)
    for does he not have regard for all the wise(AT) in heart?[b]”
