"How thy garments are warm, When the earth is still by reason of the southwind? "
— Job 37:17, American Standard Version
“How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?”
“You whose clothing is warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?”
“You, whose garments are hot when the earth is still because of the south wind,”
“Are not thy garments hot, when the south wind blows upon the earth?”
“You, whose clothing is warm, when the earth is quiet because of the south wind,”
“How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?”
Hearken unto this, O Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them, And causeth the lightning of his cloud to shine?
Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?
How thy garments are warm, When the earth is still by reason of the southwind?
Canst thou with him spread out the sky, Which is strong as a molten mirror?
Teach us what we shall say unto him; For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness.
Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?
