For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.

Verse 6 is found in chapter 37 of Job. Elihu contemplates natural phenomena such as rain, clouds, storms, and lightning to demonstrate God’s sovereign activity. Nature becomes evidence that divine government operates on a scale beyond human understanding. The speech shifts the discussion from the particular cause of suffering toward the magnitude of the created order.

Er spricht zum Schnee, so ist er bald auf Erden, und zum Platzregen, so ist der Platzregen da mit Macht.
Porque a la nieve dice: Desciende a la tierra; También a la llovizna, Y a los aguaceros de su fortaleza.
Porque a la nieve le dice: “Cae sobre la tierra”, y lo mismo al aguacero, a sus lluvias torrenciales.
Il dit à la neige: Tombe sur la terre! Il le dit à la pluie, même aux plus fortes pluies.
Perciocchè egli dice alla neve: Cadi in su la terra; E parimente al nembo della pioggia, al nembo delle sue forti piogge.
Porque à neve diz: Cai sobre a terra; como também à garoa e à sua forte chuva.
他對雪說:『要降在地上』; 對大雨和暴雨也是這樣說。
