‏ Job 36:28

Verse 28. Which the clouds do drop] In proportion to the evaporation will be the clouds or masses of volatilized and suspended vapour; and in proportion to this will be the quantum of rain which in different forms will fall upon the earth.

There is a remarkable addition to this verse in the Septuagint. I shall insert the whole verse: ρυησονταιπαλαιωματαεσκιασεδε νεφηεπιαμυθητωβροτωωρανεθετοκτηνεσινοιδασιδεκοιτης ταξινεπιτουτοιςπασινουκεξισταταισουηδιανοιαουδε διαλλασσεταισουηκαρδιααποσωματος; "The rains descend, and the clouds cover with their shadows multitudes of men: he hath appointed to animals to know the order of their dwellings. At the contemplation of these things is not thy mind transported, and thy heart ready to part from thy body?"
