Job 约伯记37
英语课
37"At this my heart pounds and leaps from its place.
2Listen! Listen to the roar of his voice, to the rumbling 1 that comes from his mouth.
3He unleashes 2 his lightning beneath the whole heaven and sends it to the ends of the earth.
4After that comes the sound of his roar; he thunders with his majestic 3 voice. When his voice resounds 4, he holds nothing back.
5God's voice thunders in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding.
6He says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth,' and to the rain shower, 'Be a mighty 5 downpour.'
7So that all men he has made may know his work, he stops every man from his labor 6.
8The animals take cover; they remain in their dens 7.
9The tempest comes out from its chamber 8, the cold from the driving winds.
10The breath of God produces ice, and the broad waters become frozen.
11He loads the clouds with moisture; he scatters 9 his lightning through them.
12At his direction they swirl 10 around over the face of the whole earth to do whatever he commands them.
13He brings the clouds to punish men, or to water his earth and show his love.
14"Listen to this, Job; stop and consider God's wonders.
15Do you know how God controls the clouds and makes his lightning flash?
16Do you know how the clouds hang poised 11, those wonders of him who is perfect in knowledge?
17You who swelter in your clothes when the land lies hushed under the south wind,
18can you join him in spreading out the skies, hard as a mirror of cast bronze?
19"Tell us what we should say to him; we cannot draw up our case because of our darkness.
20Should he be told that I want to speak? Would any man ask to be swallowed up?
21Now no one can look at the sun, bright as it is in the skies after the wind has swept them clean.
22Out of the north he comes in golden splendor 12; God comes in awesome 13 majesty 14.
23The Almighty 15 is beyond our reach and exalted 16 in power; in his justice and great righteousness, he does not oppress.
24Therefore, men revere 17 him, for does he not have regard for all the wise in heart? "
