Job 38:22-30
Legacy Standard Bible
22 Have you entered the storehouses (A)of the snow,
Or have you seen the storehouses of the (B)hail,
23 Which I have reserved for the time of distress,
For the day of war and battle?
24 Where is the way that (C)the light is divided,
Or the east wind scattered on the earth?
25 “Who has cleft a conduit for the flood,
Or a way for the thunderbolt,
26 To bring (D)rain on a land without [a]people,
On a desert without a man in it,
27 To (E)satisfy the waste and desolate land
And to make the growth of grass to sprout?
28 Has (F)the rain a father?
Or who has begotten the drops of dew?
29 From whose womb has come the (G)ice?
And the frost of heaven, who has given it birth?
30 Water [b]becomes hard like stone,
And the surface of the deep [c]is interlocked.
Job 38:22-30
American Standard Version
22 Hast thou entered the treasuries of the snow,
Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,
23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble,
Against the day of battle and war?
24 [a]By what way is the light parted,
Or the east wind scattered upon the earth?
25 Who hath cleft a channel for the waterflood,
Or the way for the lightning of the thunder;
26 To cause it to rain on a land where no man is;
On the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
27 To satisfy the waste and desolate ground,
And to cause the [b]tender grass to spring forth?
28 Hath the rain a father?
Or who hath begotten the drops of dew?
29 Out of whose womb came the ice?
And the hoary frost of heaven, who hath [c]gendered it?
30 The waters [d]hide themselves and become like stone,
And the face of the deep [e]is frozen.
