11 Rain clouds filled with lightningappear at God's command,
12 travelling across the sky
13 to release their cargo—sometimes as punishment for sin,sometimes as kindness.
14 Job, consider carefullythe many wonders of God.
15 Can you explain why lightningflashes at the orders
16 of God who knows all things?Or how he hangs the cloudsin empty space?
17 You almost melt in the heatof fierce desert windswhen the sky is like brass.
