Job 38:21-29 New English Translation (NET)

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?

28. Does the rain have a father,or who has fathered the drops of the dew?

29. From whose womb does the ice emerge,and the frost from the sky, who gives birth to it,
