29 From whose womb has come the (A)ice?
And the frost of heaven, who has given it birth?

And the surface of the deep is imprisoned.

31 “Can you tie up the chains of the (B)Pleiades,
Or untie the cords of Orion?
32 Can you bring out a [b]constellation in its season,
And guide the Bear with her [c]satellites?
33 Do you know the (C)ordinances of the heavens,
Or do you establish their rule over the earth?
