Holman Christian Standard Bible

Job 38:27-38 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

27. to satisfy the parched wastelandand cause the grass to sprout?

28. Does the rain have a father?Who fathered the drops of dew?

29. Whose womb did the ice come from?Who gave birth to the frost of heaven

30. when water becomes as hard as stone, and the surface of the watery depths is frozen?

31. Can you fasten the chains of the Pleiadesor loosen the belt of Orion?

32. Can you bring out the constellations in their seasonand lead the Bear and her cubs?

33. Do you know the laws of heaven?Can you impose its authority on earth?

34. Can you command the cloudsso that a flood of water covers you?

35. Can you send out lightning bolts, and they go?Do they report to you: “Here we are”?

36. Who put wisdom in the heart or gave the mind understanding?

37. Who has the wisdom to number the clouds?Or who can tilt the water jars of heaven

38. when the dust hardens like cast metaland the clods of dirt stick together?
