1 Also, at this my heart trembleth, And it moveth from its place.

1 אַף־לְ֭זֹאת יֶחֱרַ֣ד לִבִּ֑י וְ֝יִתַּ֗ר מִמְּקֹומֹֽו׃

2 Hearken diligently to the trembling of His voice, Yea, the sound from His mouth goeth forth.

2 שִׁמְע֤וּ שָׁמֹ֣ועַ בְּרֹ֣גֶז קֹלֹ֑ו וְ֝הֶ֗גֶה מִפִּ֥יו יֵצֵֽא׃

3 Under the whole heavens He directeth it, And its light `is' over the skirts of the earth.

3 תַּֽחַת־כָּל־הַשָּׁמַ֥יִם יִשְׁרֵ֑הוּ וְ֝אֹורֹ֗ו עַל־כַּנְפֹ֥ות הָאָֽרֶץ׃

4 After it roar doth a voice -- He thundereth with the voice of His excellency, And He doth not hold them back, When His voice is heard.

4 אַחֲרָ֤יו׀ יִשְׁאַג־קֹ֗ול יַ֭רְעֵם בְּקֹ֣ול גְּאֹונֹ֑ו וְלֹ֥א יְ֝עַקְּבֵ֗ם כִּֽי־יִשָּׁמַ֥ע קֹולֹֽו׃

5 God thundereth with His voice wonderfully, Doing great things and we know not.

5 יַרְעֵ֤ם אֵ֣ל בְּ֭קֹולֹו נִפְלָאֹ֑ות עֹשֶׂ֥ה גְ֝דֹלֹ֗ות וְלֹ֣א נֵדָֽע׃

6 For to snow He saith, `Be `on' the earth.' And the small rain and great rain of His power.

6 כִּ֤י לַשֶּׁ֨לַג¹׀ יֹאמַ֗ר הֱוֵ֫א אָ֥רֶץ וְגֶ֥שֶׁם מָטָ֑ר וְ֝גֶ֗שֶׁם מִטְרֹ֥ות עֻזֹּֽו׃

7 Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.

7 בְּיַד־כָּל־אָדָ֥ם יַחְתֹּ֑ום לָ֝דַ֗עַת כָּל־אַנְשֵׁ֥י מַעֲשֵֽׂהוּ׃

8 And enter doth the beast into covert, And in its habitations it doth continue.

8 וַתָּבֹ֣א חַיָּ֣ה בְמֹו־אָ֑רֶב וּבִמְעֹ֖ונֹתֶ֣יהָ תִשְׁכֹּֽן׃

9 From the inner chamber cometh a hurricane, And from scatterings winds -- cold,

9 מִן־הַ֭חֶדֶר תָּבֹ֣וא סוּפָ֑ה וּֽמִמְּזָרִ֥ים קָרָֽה׃

10 From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is straitened,

10 מִנִּשְׁמַת־אֵ֥ל יִתֶּן־קָ֑רַח וְרֹ֖חַב מַ֣יִם בְּמוּצָֽק׃

11 Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.

11 אַף־בְּ֭רִי יַטְרִ֣יחַ עָ֑ב יָ֝פִ֗יץ עֲנַ֣ן אֹורֹֽו׃

12 And it is turning itself round by His counsels, For their doing all He commandeth them, On the face of the habitable earth.

12 וְה֤וּא מְסִבֹּ֨ות׀ מִתְהַפֵּ֣ךְ בְּתַחְבּוּלָתֹו בְּתַחְבּוּלֹתָ֣יו לְפָעֳלָ֑ם כֹּ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר יְצַוֵּ֓ם׀ עַל־פְּנֵ֖י תֵבֵ֣ל אָֽרְצָה׃

13 Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness -- He doth cause it to come.

13 אִם־לְשֵׁ֥בֶט אִם־לְאַרְצֹ֑ו אִם־לְ֝חֶ֗סֶד יַמְצִאֵֽהוּ׃

14 Hear this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.

14 הַאֲזִ֣ינָה זֹּ֣את אִיֹּ֑וב עֲ֝מֹ֗ד וְהִתְבֹּונֵ֤ן׀ נִפְלְאֹ֬ות אֵֽל׃

15 Dost thou know when God doth place them, And caused to shine the light of His cloud?

15 הֲ֭תֵדַע בְּשׂוּם־אֱלֹ֣והַּ עֲלֵיהֶ֑ם וְ֝הֹופִ֗יעַ אֹ֣ור עֲנָנֹֽו׃

16 Dost thou know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?

16 הֲ֭תֵדַע עַל־מִפְלְשֵׂי־עָ֑ב מִ֝פְלְאֹ֗ות תְּמִ֣ים דֵּעִֽים׃

17 How thy garments `are' warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south?

17 אֲשֶׁר־בְּגָדֶ֥יךָ חַמִּ֑ים בְּהַשְׁקִ֥ט אֶ֝֗רֶץ מִדָּרֹֽום׃

18 Thou hast made an expanse with Him For the clouds -- strong as a hard mirror!

18 תַּרְקִ֣יעַ עִ֭מֹּו לִשְׁחָקִ֑ים חֲ֝זָקִ֗ים כִּרְאִ֥י מוּצָֽק׃

19 Let us know what we say to Him, We set not in array because of darkness.

19 הֹ֖ודִיעֵנוּ מַה־נֹּ֣אמַר לֹ֑ו לֹ֥א־נַ֝עֲרֹ֗ךְ מִפְּנֵי־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃

20 Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man hath spoken, surely he is swallowed up.

20 הַֽיְסֻפַּר־לֹ֖ו כִּ֣י אֲדַבֵּ֑ר אִֽם־אָ֥מַר אִ֝֗ישׁ כִּ֣י יְבֻלָּֽע׃

21 And now, they have not seen the light, Bright it `is' in the clouds, And the wind hath passed by and cleanseth them.

21 וְעַתָּ֤ה׀ לֹ֘א רָ֤אוּ אֹ֗ור בָּהִ֣יר ה֭וּא³ בַּשְּׁחָקִ֑ים וְר֥וּחַ עָ֝בְרָ֗ה וַֽתְּטַהֲרֵֽם׃

22 From the golden north it cometh, Beside God `is' fearful honour.

22 מִ֭צָּפֹון זָהָ֣ב יֶֽאֱתֶ֑ה עַל־אֱ֝לֹ֗והַּ נֹ֣ורָא הֹֽוד׃

23 The Mighty! we have not found Him out, High in power and judgment, He doth not answer! And abundant in righteousness,

23 שַׁדַּ֣י לֹֽא־מְ֭צָאנֻהוּ שַׂגִּיא־כֹ֑חַ וּמִשְׁפָּ֥ט וְרֹב־צְ֝דָקָ֗ה לֹ֣א יְעַנֶּֽה׃

24 Therefore do men fear Him, He seeth not any of the wise of heart.

24 לָ֭כֵן יְרֵא֣וּהוּ אֲנָשִׁ֑ים לֹֽא־יִ֝רְאֶ֗ה כָּל־חַכְמֵי־לֵֽב׃
