5. God’s thundering voice is amazing! He does great things that we cannot understand.

6. He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth.’ And he says to the rain, ‘Pour down on the earth.’

7. God does this to stop everyone’s work and to show the people he made what he can do.

8. The animals run into their dens and stay there.

9. Whirlwinds come from the south. The cold winds come from the north.

10. God’s breath makes ice and freezes even large bodies of water.

11. He fills the clouds with water and scatters his lightning through them.

12. He orders the clouds to be blown all around the earth. The clouds do whatever he commands.

13. He causes the clouds to punish people with floods or to water his earth and show his love.

14. “Job, stop for a minute and listen. Think about the wonderful things God does.

15. Do you know how God controls the clouds? Do you know how he makes his lightning flash?
