Sirach 43:19

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:

¹⁸The eye marvelleth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the raining of it.

— Sirach 43:19 —

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.

²¹It devoureth the mountains, and burneth the wilderness, and consumeth the grass as fire.
