Context
37:1 At this also my heart pounds and leaps from its place .
37:2 Listen carefully to the thunder of his voice , to the rumbling that proceeds from his mouth .
37:3 Under the whole heaven he lets it go , even his lightning to the far corners of the earth .
37:4 After that a voice roars ; he thunders with an exalted voice , and he does not hold back his lightning bolts when his voice is heard .
37:5 God thunders with his voice in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding .
37:6 For to the snow he says , ‘Fall to earth ,’ and to the torrential rains , ‘Pour down .’
37:7 He causes everyone to stop working , so that all people may know his work .
37:8 The wild animals go to their lairs , and in their dens they remain .
