Job 37:10 Context
8Then the beastes goe into dennes: and remaine in their places. 9Out of the South commeth the whirlewinde: and cold out of the North. 10By the breath of God, frost is giuen: and the breadth of the waters is straitned. 11Also by watring he wearieth the thicke cloud: hee scattereth his bright cloud. 12And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may doe whatsoeuer hee commaundeth them vpon the face of the world in the earth.
