15. By his mighty power he makes strong the clouds, And the hailstones are broken small:
16. And at his appearing the mountains will be shaken, And at his will the south wind will blow.
17. The voice of his thunder makes the earth to travail; So does the northern storm and the whirlwind: As birds flying down he sprinkleth the snow; And as the lighting of the locust is the falling down thereof:
18. The eye will marvel at the beauty of its whiteness, And the heart will be astonished at the raining of it.
19. The hoar frost also he pours on the earth as salt; And when it is congealed, it is as points of thorns.
20. The cold north wind shall blow, And the ice shall be congealed on the water: It shall lodge upon every gathering together of water, And the water shall put on as it were a breastplate.
21. It shall devour the mountains, and burn up the wilderness, And consume the green herb as fire.
22. A mist coming speedily is the healing of all things; A dew coming after heat shall bring cheerfulness.
