Job 36:28-30
New English Translation

28 which the clouds pour down
and shower on humankind abundantly.
29 Who can understand the spreading of the clouds,
the thunderings of his pavilion?[a]
30 See how he scattered[b] his lightning[c] about him;
he has covered the depths[d] of the sea.

Footnotes

  1. Job 36:29 tn Heb “his booth.”
  2. Job 36:30 tn The word actually means “to spread,” but with lightning as the object, “to scatter” appears to fit the context better.
  3. Job 36:30 tn The word is “light,” but taken to mean “lightning.” Theodotion had “mist” here, and so most commentators follow that because it is more appropriate to the verb and the context.
  4. Job 36:30 tn Heb “roots.”
