Read in context

Job 37:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

20 Should He be told that I want to speak? Would a man ask to be swallowed up ?
