Job 38:29-30

Context

38:29 From whose womb does the ice emerge,

and the frost from the sky, 1  who gives birth to it,

38:30 when the waters become hard 2  like stone,

when the surface of the deep is frozen solid?

[38:29]  1 tn Or “heavens.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

[38:30]  2 tn Several suggest that the verb is not from חָבָא (khava’, “to hide”) but from a homonym, “to congeal.” This may be too difficult to support, however.
