New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 38
26 Who makes the rain fall on barren land, in a desert where no one lives?
27 Who sends rain to satisfy the parched ground and make the tender grass spring up?
28 “Does the rain have a father? Who gives birth to the dew?
29 Who is the mother of the ice? Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens?
30 For the water turns to ice as hard as rock, and the surface of the water freezes.
31 “Can you direct the movement of the stars— binding the cluster of the Pleiades or loosening the cords of Orion?
32 Can you direct the sequence of the seasons or guide the Bear with her cubs across the heavens?
33 Do you know the laws of the universe? Can you use them to regulate the earth?
34 “Can you shout to the clouds and make it rain?
35 Can you make lightning appear and cause it to strike as you direct?
36 Who gives intuition to the heart and instinct to the mind?
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
