26Yes, God is exalted beyond our knowledge;o
the number of his years cannot be counted.p
27For he makes waterdrops evaporate;G
they distill the rain into itsH mist,q
28which the clouds pour out
and shower abundantly on mankind.
29Can anyone understand how the clouds spread out
or how the thunder roars from God’s pavilion?a

ESVEnglish Standard Version
Behold, God is great, and we know him not;
the number of his years is unsearchable.
For he draws up the drops of water;
they distill his mist in rain,
which the skies pour down
and drop on mankind abundantly.
Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds,
the thunderings of his pavilion?

NIVNew International Version (2011)
How great is God—beyond our understanding!
The number of his years is past finding out.
“He draws up the drops of water,
which distill as rain to the streams;
the clouds pour down their moisture
and abundant showers fall on mankind.
Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds,
how he thunders from his pavilion?

NLTNew Living Translation
“Look, God is greater than we can understand.
His years cannot be counted.
He draws up the water vapor
and then distills it into rain.
The rain pours down from the clouds,
and everyone benefits.
Who can understand the spreading of the clouds
and the thunder that rolls forth from heaven?

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
“Look, God is exalted, and we do not know him;
the number of his years is unsearchable.
Indeed, he draws up the drops of water;
he distills the rain into its mist,
which the clouds pour down;
they shower abundantly on human beings.
“Moreover, can anyone understand the spreading of clouds,
the thundering of his dwelling place?

KJV 1900King James Version
Behold, God is great, and we know him not,
Neither can the number of his years be searched out.
For he maketh small the drops of water:
They pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
Which the clouds do drop
And distil upon man abundantly.
Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds,
Or the noise of his tabernacle?
