Job 37:14-18

New King James Version

¹⁴“Listen to this, O Job;
Stand still and ^(A)consider the wondrous works of God.
¹⁵Do you know when God ^[a]dispatches them,
And causes the light of His cloud to shine?
¹⁶^(B)Do you know how the clouds are balanced,
Those wondrous works of ^(C)Him who is perfect in knowledge?
¹⁷Why are your garments hot,
When He quiets the earth by the south wind?
¹⁸With Him, have you ^(D)spread out the ^(E)skies,
Strong as a cast metal mirror?
