You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,

How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?

You whose clothing is warm when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?

Job 37:15–19 · Berean Standard Bible

15 Do you know how God dispatches the clouds or makes the lightning flash?

16 Do you understand how the clouds float, those wonders of Him who is perfect in knowledge?

17 You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,

18 can you, like Him, spread out the skies to reflect the heat like a mirror of bronze?

19 Teach us what we should say to Him; we cannot draw up our case when our faces are in darkness.
