when they are choked with ice\par and melting snow.\par
Hot, dry weather takes away their water\par that came from the winter snows.\par So those sinners will be carried\par to the grave.\par
“Job, have you ever gone into\par the storerooms where I keep\par the snow and the hail?\par
Does ice have a mother?\par Who gives birth to the hail?\par
But you, my brothers, have not been loyal.\par I can’t depend on you.\par You are like streams that flow sometimes\par and don’t flow at other times.\par You are like streams that overflow\par
And when the weather is hot and dry,\par the water stops flowing,\par and the streams are gone.\par
Then, God gives another command,\par and the warm air blows again.\par The ice melts,\par and water begins to flow.\par
