Job 37:16

God's power and sovereignty

14 Listen to this, O Job; stand still and consider the wonders of God.

15 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 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?

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
