11 Lightning flashes from the clouds,
12 as they move at God's will.They do all that God commands,everywhere throughout the world.
13 God sends rain to water the earth;he may send it to punish us,or to show us his favor.
14 Pause a moment, Job, and listen;consider the wonderful things God does.
15 Do you know how God gives the commandand makes lightning flash from the clouds?
16 Do you know how clouds float in the sky,the work of God's amazing skill?
17 No, you can only suffer in the heatwhen the south wind oppresses the land.
