14 “Listen to this, O Job;
Stand still and (A)consider the wondrous works of God.
15 Do 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?
17 Why are your garments hot,
When He quiets the earth by the south wind?
18 With Him, have you (D)spread out the (E)skies,
Strong as a cast metal mirror?

14 Hearken unto this, O Job:
Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
15 Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them,
And causeth the [a]lightning of his cloud to shine?
16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds,
The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?
17 [b]How thy garments are warm,
[c]When the earth is still by reason of the south wind?
18 Canst thou with him spread out the sky,
Which is strong as a molten mirror?
