Job 36:26–27

26 How great is God—beyond our understanding!

The number of his years is past finding out.

27 “He draws up the drops of water,

which distill as rain to the streams;

26 Behold, God is great, and we know him not;

the number of his years is unsearchable.

27 For he draws up the drops of water;

they distill his mist in rain,

26 Behold, God is great, and we know him not,

Neither can the number of his years be searched out.

27 For he maketh small the drops of water:

They pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:

26 “Look, God is greater than we can understand.

His years cannot be counted.

27 He draws up the water vapor

and then distills it into rain.

26 “Behold, God is great, and we do not know Him;

Nor can the number of His years be discovered.

27 For He draws up drops of water,

Which distill as rain from the mist,

26 God is so great, greater than we can understand!

No one knows how old he is.

27 “He evaporates the drops of water from the earth

and turns them into rain.

26 Behold, God is great, and we know him not;

The number of his years is unsearchable.

27 For he draweth up the drops of water,

Which distil in rain from his vapor,

26 Lo, •God is great, and we comprehend him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out. 27 For he draweth up the drops of water: they distil in rain from the vapour which he formeth,

26 “Certainly, God is so great 

that he is beyond our understanding. 

The number of his years cannot be counted. 

27 He collects drops of water. 

He distills rain from his mist, 

26 Yes, God is exalted beyond our knowledge;

the number of His years cannot be counted.

27 For He makes waterdrops evaporate;

they distill the rain into its mist,

26 Surely God is great, and we do not know him;

the number of his years is unsearchable.

27 For he draws up the drops of water;

he distills his mist in rain,

26 “Look, God is exalted, and we do not know him;

the number of his years is unsearchable.

27 Indeed, he draws up the drops of water;

he distills the rain into its mist,

26 How great God is! We’ll never completely understand him.

We’ll never find out how long he has lived.

27 “He makes mist rise from the water.

Then it falls as rain into the streams.
