1 ‘At this my heart poundsand leaps from its place.
2 Listen! Listen to the roar of his voice,to the rumbling that comes from his mouth.
3 He unleashes his lightning beneath the whole heavenand sends it to the ends of the earth.
4 After that comes the sound of his roar;he thunders with his majestic voice.When his voice resounds,he holds nothing back.
5 God’s voice thunders in marvellous ways;he does great things beyond our understanding.
6 He says to the snow, “Fall on the earth,”and to the rain shower, “Be a mighty downpour.”
7 So that everyone he has made may know his work,he stops all people from their labour.
