“At this my heart also pounds and leaps from its place.
Listen closely to the thunder of His voice and the rumbling that comes from His mouth.
He unleashes His lightning beneath the whole sky and sends it to the ends of the earth.
4 ೪ ಸಿಡಿಲಿನ ತರುವಾಯ ಗರ್ಜನೆಯುಂಟಾಗುವುದು, ಆತನು ತನ್ನ ಮಹಿಮೆಯ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದ ಗುಡುಗುವನು. ಆ ಶಬ್ದವು ಕೇಳಿಸಿದ ಮೇಲೆಯೂ ಆತನು ಸಿಡಿಲುಗಳನ್ನು ತಡೆಯುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.
Then there comes a roaring sound; He thunders with His majestic voice. He does not restrain the lightning when His voice resounds.
God thunders wondrously with His voice; He does great things we cannot comprehend.
6 ೬ ಆತನು ಹಿಮಕ್ಕೆ, ‘ಭೂಮಿಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಬೀಳು’ ಎಂದು, ತನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿಯ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಮಳೆಗೆ, ‘ರಭಸದಿಂದ ಸುರಿ’ ಎಂದು ಅಪ್ಪಣೆಮಾಡುವನು.
For He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth,’ and to the gentle rain, ‘Pour out a mighty downpour.’
He seals up the hand of every man, so that all men may know His work.
The wild animals enter their lairs; they settle down in their dens.
The tempest comes from its chamber, and the cold from the driving north winds.
By the breath of God the ice is formed and the watery expanses are frozen.
He loads the clouds with moisture; He scatters His lightning through them.
12 ೧೨ ಸಿಡಿಲುಗಳು ಭೂಮಂಡಲದಲ್ಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ತಾನು ವಿಧಿಸುವುದನ್ನೇ ಮಾಡಲಿ ಎಂದು, ಅವುಗಳನ್ನು ನಡಿಸಿ ಸುತ್ತಮುತ್ತಲು ತಿರುಗಿಸುವನು.
They swirl about, whirling at His direction, accomplishing all that He commands over the face of all the earth.
13 ೧೩ ಆತನು ದಂಡನೆಗಾಗಲಿ, ತನ್ನ ಭೂಮಿಯ ಹಿತಕ್ಕಾಗಲಿ, ಕೃಪೆತೋರುವುದಕ್ಕಾಗಲಿ ಹಾಗೂ ಒಡಂಬಡಿಕೆಯ ನಂಬಿಗಸ್ತಿಕೆಯಿಂದ ಆ ಮೇಘಗಳನ್ನು ಬರಮಾಡುವನು.
Whether for punishment or for His land, He accomplishes this in His loving devotion.
Listen to this, O Job; stand still and consider the wonders of God.
Do you know how God dispatches the clouds or makes the lightning flash?
Do you understand how the clouds float, those wonders of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
17 ೧೭ ಭೂಮಿಯು ದಕ್ಷಿಣ ಗಾಳಿಯ ದೆಸೆಯಿಂದ ಸ್ತಬ್ಧವಾಗಿರುವ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ, ಉಡುಪಿನ ಬಿಸಿಯನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸುವ ಅರಿವು ನಿನಗಿರುತ್ತದೆಯೇ?
You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,
can you, like Him, spread out the skies to reflect the heat like a mirror of bronze?
19 ೧೯ ಆತನಿಗೆ ಹೇಳತಕ್ಕದ್ದನ್ನು ನಮಗೆ ನೀನೇ ತಿಳಿಸು, ಅಂಧಕಾರವು ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕವಿದಿರುವುದರಿಂದ ಏನೂ ಮಾತನಾಡಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲ.
Teach us what we should say to Him; we cannot draw up our case when our faces are in darkness.
Should He be told that I want to speak? Would a man ask to be swallowed up?
Now no one can gaze at the sun when it is bright in the skies after the wind has swept them clean.
Out of the north He comes in golden splendor; awesome majesty surrounds Him.
23 ೨೩ ಇಂಥ ಸರ್ವಶಕ್ತನಾದ ದೇವರನ್ನು ನಾವು ಕಂಡುಹಿಡಿಯಲಾರೆವು; ಆತನ ಪರಾಕ್ರಮವು ಬಹಳ; ಆತನು ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನಾಗಲಿ, ಪರಿಪೂರ್ಣ ಧರ್ಮವನ್ನಾಗಲಿ ಕುಂದಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.
The Almighty is beyond our reach; He is exalted in power! In His justice and great righteousness He does not oppress.
Therefore, men fear Him, for He is not partial to the wise in heart.”
