Job 37:19-24
New American Standard Bible
19 Teach us what we are to say to Him;
We (A)cannot present our case because of darkness.
20 Shall it be told Him that I would speak?
[a]Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up?
21 “Now people do not see the light which is bright in the skies;
But the wind has passed and cleared them.
22 From the north comes golden splendor;
Around God is awesome majesty.
23 The Almighty—(B)we cannot find Him;
He is (C)exalted in power
And (D)He will not violate (E)justice and abundant righteousness.
24 Therefore people (F)fear Him;
He does not (G)regard any who are wise of heart.”

- Job 37:20 Or If a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up
Job 37:19-24
International Standard Version
19 Tell us! What are we to say to him?
Can we prepare our case to face him
when our faces are in darkness?
20 Has it been relayed to God[a] that I want to talk?
Can a person[b] speak when he is confused?”
God is Revered
21 “So then, the sun[c] is too bright to gaze at, is it not?
The sky is swept clean by the wind that blows,[d] is it not?
22 From the north he brings gold;
around God is awesome splendor.
23 We cannot find the Almighty—
he is majestic in power and justice,
and overflowing with righteousness;
he never oppresses.
24 Therefore humanity fears him,
which none of the wise[e] can quite comprehend.”
