Sirach 43:18

¹⁶At his sight the mountains are shaken, And at his will the south wind bloweth.

¹⁷The noise of the thunder maketh the earth to tremble: So doth the northern storm and the whirlwind: As birds flying he scattereth the snow, And the falling down thereof is as the lighting of grasshoppers:

— Sirach 43:18 —

¹⁹The hoarfrost also as salt he poureth on the earth, And being congealed, it becometh sharp peaks.

²⁰When the cold north wind bloweth, And the water is congealed into ice, It abideth upon every gathering together of water, And clotheth the water as with a breastplate.
