## Elihu Speaks of God's Voice 

###### 1
"At this also my heart trembles, And leaps from its place. 

###### 2
Listen closely to the thunder of His voice, And the rumbling that goes out from His mouth. 

###### 3
Under the whole heaven He lets it loose, And His lightning to the ends of the earth. 

###### 4
After it, a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice, And He does not restrain the lightnings when His voice is heard. 

###### 5
God thunders with His voice marvelously, Doing great things which we do not know. 

###### 6
For to the snow He says, 'Fall on the earth,' And to the downpour of rain and the downpour of rains, 'Be strong.' 

###### 7
He seals the hand of every man, That all men may know His work. 

###### 8
Then the beast goes into its lair And dwells in its den. 

###### 9
Out of the south comes the storm, And out of the north the cold. 

###### 10
From the breath of God ice is made, And the expanse of the waters is frozen. 

###### 11
Also with moisture He loads the thick cloud; He scatters the cloud of His lightning. 

###### 12
It changes direction, turning around by His guidance, That it may do whatever He commands it On the face of the inhabited earth. 

###### 13
Whether for correction, or for His world, Or for lovingkindness, He causes it to happen. 

###### 14
"Give ear to this, O Job, Stand and carefully consider the wondrous deeds of God. 

###### 15
Do you know how God establishes them, And makes the lightning of His cloud to shine? 

###### 16
Do you know about the layers of the thick clouds, The wonders of one perfect in knowledge, 

###### 17
You whose garments are hot, When the land is quiet because of the south wind? 

###### 18
Can you, with Him, spread out the skies, Strong as a molten mirror? 

###### 19
Make us know what we shall say to Him; We cannot arrange _our case_ because of darkness. 

###### 20
Shall it be recounted to Him that I would speak? If a man says _a word_, will He indeed be swallowed up? 

###### 21
"So now men do not see the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind has passed and cleared them. 

###### 22
Out of the north comes golden _splendor_; Around God is fearsome majesty. 

###### 23
The Almighty--we cannot find Him; He is exalted in power And He will not afflict justice and abundant righteousness. 

###### 24
Therefore men fear Him; He does not regard any who are wise of heart."
