   or loose the cords of Orion?
³² Can you lead forth the Mazzaroth in their season,
   or can you guide the Bear with its children?
³³ Do you know the ordinances of the heavens?
   Can you establish their rule on the earth?

³⁴ ‘Can you lift up your voice to the clouds,
   so that a flood of waters may cover you?
³⁵ Can you send forth lightnings, so that they may go
   and say to you, “Here we are”?
³⁶ Who has put wisdom in the inward parts,^*
   or given understanding to the mind?^*
37 Who has the wisdom to number the clouds?
   Or who can tilt the waterskins of the heavens,
³⁸ when the dust runs into a mass
   and the clods cling together?

³⁹ ‘Can you hunt the prey for the lion,
   or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,
⁴⁰ when they crouch in their dens,
   or lie in wait in their covert?
⁴¹ Who provides for the raven its prey,
   when its young ones cry to God,
   and wander about for lack of food?
