Job 37:19 - The Message

"If you’re so smart, give us a lesson in how to address God.
   We’re in the dark and can’t figure it out.
Do you think I’m dumb enough to challenge God?
   Wouldn’t that just be asking for trouble?
No one in his right mind stares straight at the sun
   on a clear and cloudless day.
As gold comes from the northern mountains,
   so a terrible beauty streams from God.
