He made the Ursa Major, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the chambers of the south;

Can you bind the bands of the Pleiades, or loosen the cords of Orion?

Can you bring out the constellations in their seasons? Or can you guide Ursa Major with its sons?

He reveals deep dark mysteries, and brings out the deep darkness into the light of day.

Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place,

that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?

Those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and irons;

therefore He humbled their heart with labor; they fell down, and there was no one to help.

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke and tore their bonds apart.

The people who sat in darkness have seen a great Light, and upon those sitting in the region and shadow of death, Light has sprung up.

to give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

For, behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind and declares to man what his thought is, He who makes the dawn darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth; Jehovah the God of Hosts, is His name.

And it shall be in that day, declares the Lord Jehovah, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the light of day.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt.

They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Jehovah looked down upon the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and He confused the camp of the Egyptians.

Then Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

And the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained.

You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the beasts of the forest creep about.

He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they did not rebel against His Word.

We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes. We stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places like dead men.

He who builds His stairs in the heavens, and His firmament He has established, binding it to the earth; He who calls for the seawaters and pours them out on the face of the earth; Jehovah is His name.

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

On the very same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark;

And they went into the ark to Noah, two by two, of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

And the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it was high above the earth.

And the waters prevailed with abundant force upon the earth, and all the high hills under the heavens were covered.

And it came to pass the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there is a cloud, as small as a man's hand, rising out of the sea! So he said, Go up, say to Ahab, Prepare your chariot, and go down before the rain stops you.

And it happened in the meantime that the sky became black with clouds and wind, and there was a heavy rain. So Ahab rode away and went to Jezreel.

He causes it to come, whether as a rod, or for His land, or for mercy.

Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, that an abundance of water may cover you?

For, behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind and declares to man what his thought is, He who makes the dawn darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth; Jehovah the God of Hosts, is His name.
