Job 36:29-31
Contemporary English Version

29 Who can understand
    how God scatters the clouds
and speaks from his home
    in the thunderstorm?
30 And when God sends lightning,
it can be seen
    at the bottom of the sea.[a]
31 By producing such rainstorms,
God rules the world
    and provides us with food.
