3 He turns his lightning loose under the whole skyand sends it to the farthest parts of the earth.
4 After that you can hear the roarwhen he thunders with a great sound.He does not hold back the flashingwhen his voice is heard.
5 God’s voice thunders in wonderful ways;he does great things we cannot understand.
6 He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth,’and to the shower, ‘Be a heavy rain.’
7 With it, he stops everyone from workingso everyone knows it is the work of God.
8 The animals take cover from the rainand stay in their dens.
9 The storm comes from where it was stored;the cold comes with the strong winds.
