Job 38:19-30

New King James Version

¹⁹ “Where is the way to the dwelling of light?
And darkness, where is its place,
²⁰ That you may take it to its territory,
That you may know the paths to its home?
²¹ Do you know it, because you were born then,
Or because the number of your days is great?

²² “Have you entered ^(A)the treasury of snow,
Or have you seen the treasury of hail,
^23 (B)Which I have reserved for the time of trouble,
For the day of battle and war?
²⁴ By what way is light ^[a]diffused,
Or the east wind scattered over the earth?

²⁵ “Who ^(C)has divided a channel for the overflowing water,
Or a path for the thunderbolt,
²⁶ To cause it to rain on a land where there is no one,
A wilderness in which there is no man;
^27 (D)To satisfy the desolate waste,
And cause to spring forth the growth of tender grass?
^28 (E)Has the rain a father?
Or who has begotten the drops of dew?
²⁹ From whose womb comes the ice?
And the ^(F)frost of heaven, who gives it birth?
³⁰ The waters harden like stone,
And the surface of the deep is ^(G)frozen.^[b]
