¹⁴“Hear this, O Job; stop and consider the wondrous works of God. ¹⁵Do you know how God lays his command upon them, and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine? ¹⁶Do you know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of the one whose knowledge is perfect, ¹⁷you whose garments are hot when the earth is still because of the south wind? ¹⁸Can you, like him, spread out the skies, hard as a molten mirror? ¹⁹Teach us what we shall say to him; we cannot draw up our case because of darkness. ²⁰Should he be told that I want to speak? Did anyone ever wish to be swallowed up?

²¹Now, no one can look on the light when it is bright in the skies, when the wind has passed and cleared them. ²²Out of the north comes golden splendor; around God is awesome majesty. ²³The Almighty—we cannot find him; he is great in power and justice, and abundant righteousness he will not violate. ²⁴Therefore mortals fear him; he does not regard any who are wise in their own conceit.”
