22 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,

23 Which I have hid [a]against the time of trouble, against the day of war and battle?

24 By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the East wind upon the earth?

25 Who hath divided the spouts for the rain? or the way for the lightning of the thunders,

26 To cause it to rain on the earth where no man is, and in the wilderness where there is no man?

27 To fulfill the wild and waste place, and to cause the bud of the herb to spring forth?

28 Who is the father of the rain? or who hath begotten the drops of the dew?

29 Out of whose womb came the ice? who hath engendered the frost of the heaven?

30 The waters are hid [b]as with a stone: and the face of the depth is frozen.
