Job 37

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 37 of 42

1 ¶ My heart also trembles at this, and it leaps from its place.

2 Listen carefully to the thunder of His voice, and the rumbling that comes out from His mouth.

3 He lets it loose under the whole heavens, and His lightning to the ends of the earth.

4 After it, a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice; and He will not hold them back when His voice is heard.
