Ecclesiasticus 43:16

Ecclesiasticus 43:16 Context

¹³By his commandment he maketh the snow to fall aplace, and sendeth swiftly the lightnings of his judgment. ¹⁴Through this the treasures are opened: and clouds fly forth as fowls. ¹⁵By his great power he maketh the clouds firm, and the hailstones are broken small. ¹⁶At his sight the mountains are shaken, and at his will the south wind bloweth. ¹⁷The noise of the thunder maketh the earth to tremble: so doth the northern storm and the whirlwind: as birds flying he scattereth the snow, and the falling down thereof is as the lighting of grasshoppers: ¹⁸The eye marvelleth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the raining of it. ¹⁹The hoarfrost also as salt he poureth on the earth, and being congealed, it lieth on the top of sharp stakes.
