Job 37:19-24

Amplified Bible

¹⁹ 
“Tell us [Job] what words [of man] shall we say to such a Being;
We cannot state our case because of darkness [that is, our ignorance in the presence of the unsearchable God].
²⁰ 
“So shall it be told Him that I wish to speak?
Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up [and destroyed by God]?

²¹ 
“Now people cannot look at the light when it is bright in the skies [without being blinded],
When the wind has passed and cleared them.
²² 
“Out of the north comes golden splendor [and people can hardly look on it];
Around God is awesome splendor and majesty [far too glorious for man’s eyes].
²³ 
“The Almighty—we cannot find Him;
He is exalted in power
And He will not do violence to [nor disregard] justice and abundant righteousness.^(A)
24 
“Men therefore fear Him;
He does not regard nor respect any who are wise in heart [in their own understanding and conceit].”^(B)
