Chap. XXXVII. Eliu continueth his discourse, shewing Gods wisdom, powre, and iustice, by his meruelous workes of Meteors, 14. and vse therof to mans commoditie. 18. which the wisest men sufficiently vnderstand not, much lesse may presume (as he vniustly chargeth Iob) to contend with God.

1   Vpon note this my hart is sore afrayd, and is moued out of his place.

2   Heare ye his speach in the terrour of his voice, and the sound proceding out of his mouth.

3   Vnder al the heauens he considereth, and his light is vpon the endes of the earth.

4   After him shal sounding roare, he shal thunder with the voice of his greatnes, & shal not be found out, when his voice shal be heard.

5   God shal thunder in his voice meruelously, he that doeth great & vnsearcheable thinges.

6   He that commandeth the snow to descend vpon the earth, and the winter raines, and the shower of his strength.

7   He that signeth in the hand of al men, that euerie one may know his workes.

8   The beast shal enter into his couert, and shal abide in his denne.

9   From the inner partes shal tempest come forth, and cold from note Arcturus.

10   When God bloweth frost congeleth, and againe waters are powred most largely.

11   Corne desireth clowdes, and the clowdes spred their light.

12   Which goe round about, whither soeuer the wil of note the gouerner shal lead them, to al that he shal c&obar;mand them vpon the face of the whole earth.

13   Whether in one tribe, or in his land, or in what place so euer of his mercy he shal command them to be found

14   Harken to these things Iob: stand, and consider the maruels of God.

15   Doest thou know when God commanded

-- --

the raines, that they shew the light of his clowdes?

16   Knowest thou the great pathes of the clowdes, and the perfect knowledges?

17   Are not thy garments hote, when the earth shal be blowen with the South winde?

18   Thou perhaps madst the heauens with him, which are most sound, cast as it were of brasse.

19   Shew vs what we may say to him: for we are wrapped in darkenes.

20   Who shal tel him the things that I speake? yea if man shal speake, he shal be deuoured.

21   But now they see not the light: sodenly the ayre shal be thickned into clowdes, and the wind passing by shal driue them away.

22   From the North gold cometh, & toward God note fearful praysing.

23   We can not find him worthely: great of strength, and iudgement, and iustice, and he can not be vttered.

24   Therfore shal men feare him, and al that seme to themselues to be wise, shal not dare to behold him. note
