1  “At this also my heart trembles

and leaps out of its place.

2  ⁱKeep listening to the thunder of his voice

and the rumbling that comes from his mouth.

3  Under the whole heaven he lets it go,

and his lightning to the corners of the earth.

4  After it his voice roars;

he ^jthunders with his ^kmajestic voice,

and he does not restrain the lightnings¹ when his voice is heard.

5  God thunders wondrously with his voice;

he does great things ^lthat we cannot comprehend.

6  For to the ^msnow he says, ‘Fall on the earth,’

likewise to the downpour, his mighty downpour.

7  He seals up the hand of every man,

that all men whom he made may know it.

8  Then the beasts go into their lairs,

and remain in their dens.
