NAB

At this my heart trembles
and leaps out of its place.

Listen to his angry voice
and the rumble that comes forth from his mouth!

Everywhere under the heavens he sends it,
with his light, to the ends of the earth.

Again his voice roars,
his majestic voice thunders;
he does not restrain them when his voice is heard.

God thunders forth marvels with his voice;
he does great things beyond our knowing.

He says to the snow, “Fall to the earth”;
likewise to his heavy, drenching rain.

He shuts up all humankind indoors,
so that all people may know his work.

The wild beasts take to cover
and remain quiet in their dens.

Out of its chamber the tempest comes forth;
from the north winds, the cold.

With his breath God brings the frost,
and the broad waters congeal.

The clouds too are laden with moisture,
the storm-cloud scatters its light.

He it is who changes their rounds, according to his plans,
to do all that he commands them
across the inhabited world.

Whether for punishment or mercy,
he makes it happen.

Listen to this, Job!
Stand and consider the marvels of God!

Do you know how God lays his command upon them,
and makes the light shine forth from his clouds?

Do you know how the clouds are banked,
the marvels of him who is perfect in knowledge?

You, who swelter in your clothes
when calm lies over the land from the south,

Can you with him spread out the firmament of the skies,
hard as a molten mirror?

Teach us then what we shall say to him;
we cannot, for the darkness, make our plea.

Will he be told about it when I speak?
Can anyone talk when he is being destroyed?

Rather, it is as the light that cannot be seen
while it is obscured by the clouds,
till the wind comes by and sweeps them away.

From Zaphon the golden splendor comes,
surrounding God’s awesome majesty!

The Almighty! We cannot find him,
preeminent in power and judgment,
abundant in justice, who never oppresses.

Therefore people fear him;
none can see him, however wise their hearts.
