Job 38:19-27 New English Translation (NET)

19. “In what direction does light reside,and darkness, where is its place,

20. that you may take them to their bordersand perceive the pathways to their homes?

21. You know, for you were born before them;and the number of your days is great!

22. Have you entered the storehouse of the snow,or seen the armory of the hail,

23. which I reserve for the time of trouble,for the day of war and battle?

24. In what direction is lightning dispersed,or the east winds scattered over the earth?

25. Who carves out a channel for the heavy rains,and a path for the rumble of thunder,

26. to cause it to rain on an uninhabited land,a desert where there are no human beings,

27. to satisfy a devastated and desolate land,and to cause it to sprout with vegetation?
