23 which I reserve for the time of trouble,for the day of war and battle?
24 In what direction is lightning dispersed,or the east winds scattered over the earth?
25 Who carves out a channel for the heavy rains,and a path for the rumble of thunder,
26 to cause it to rain on an uninhabited land,a desert where there are no human beings,
27 to satisfy a devastated and desolate land,and to cause it to sprout with vegetation?
28 Does the rain have a father,or who has fathered the drops of the dew?
29 From whose womb does the ice emerge,and the frost from the sky, who gives birth to it,
