Job 38:24-33 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

24. "Where is the way that the light is divided, Or the east wind scattered on the earth?

25. "Who has cleft a channel for the flood, Or a way for the thunderbolt,

26. To bring rain on a land without people, On a desert without a man in it,

27. To satisfy the waste and desolate land And to make the seeds of grass to sprout?

28. "Has the rain a father? Or who has begotten the drops of dew?

29. "From whose womb has come the ice? And the frost of heaven, who has given it birth?

30. "Water becomes hard like stone, And the surface of the deep is imprisoned.

31. "Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades, Or loose the cords of Orion?

32. "Can you lead forth a constellation in its season, And guide the Bear with her satellites?

33. "Do you know the ordinances of the heavens, Or fix their rule over the earth?
