Job 38:31

Verse 31 of 41. The 38th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

27to satisfy the waste and desolate ground, to cause the tender grass to grow?

28Does the rain have a father? Or who fathers the drops of dew?

29Whose womb did the ice come out of? Who has given birth to the gray frost of the sky?

30The waters become hard like stone, when the surface of the deep is frozen.

31“Can you bind the cluster of the Pleiades, or loosen the cords of Orion?

32Can you lead the constellations out in their season? Or can you guide the Bear with her cubs?

33Do you know the laws of the heavens? Can you establish its dominion over the earth?

34“Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover you?

35Can you send out lightnings, that they may go? Do they report to you, ‘Here we are’?
