"Who is the father of rain, or who conceived the drops of dew? "
— Job 38:28, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?”
“Hath the rain a father? Or who hath begotten the drops of dew? ”
“Does the rain have a father? Or who fathers the drops of dew?”
“Does the rain have a father, or who has fathered the drops of the dew?”
“Who is the father of rain? or who begot the drops of dew?”
“Has the rain a father? or who gave birth to the drops of night mist?”
“Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?”
Who gave a course to the rainstorms, and a path to the resounding thunder,
so that it would rain on the earth far from man, in the wilderness where no mortal lingers,
so that it would fill impassable and desolate places, and would bring forth green plants?
Who is the father of rain, or who conceived the drops of dew?
From whose womb did the ice proceed, and who created the frost from the air?
The waters are hardened to become like stone, and the surface of the abyss freezes over.
Will you have the strength to join together the sparkling stars of the Pleiades, or are you able to disperse the circling of Arcturus?
