Job 37:10
By the breath of God the ice is formed and the watery expanses are frozen.
BSB
ASV
By the breath of God ice is given; And the breadth of the waters is straitened.
KJV
By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
By the breath of God frost is given - The freezing of water, though it is generally allowed to be the effect of cold, and has been carefully examined by the most eminent philosophers, is still involved in much mystery; and is a very proper subject to be produced among the great things which God doeth, and which we cannot comprehend, Job 37:5. Water, when frozen, becomes solid, and increases considerably in bulk. The expansive power in freezing is so great, that, if water be confined in a gun-barrel, it will split the solid metal throughout its whole length.
The walk2
Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

Behold, at this time tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
