and_o mind_n the_o lord_n arise_v and_o answer_v job_n second_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v say_v to_o answer_v job_n out_o of_o the_o whirlwind_n because_o he_o speak_v to_o he_o angry_o displease_o and_o reprove_o anger_n especial_o the_o lord_n anger_n or_o displeasure_n be_v often_o in_o scripture_n compare_v to_o a_o storm_n or_o tempest_n as_o if_o this_o whirlwind_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o sharp_a angry_a chide_n when_o a_o man_n chide_v we_o say_v the_o man_n be_v in_o a_o storm_n and_o we_o may_v say_v with_o reverence_n when_o the_o lord_n speak_v chide_o as_o he_o do_v to_o job_n he_o be_v in_o a_o storm_n or_o according_a to_o the_o text_n speak_v out_o of_o a_o sto_z my_o whirlwind_n thus_o also_o when_o the_o lord_n speak_v pleas_o and_o gentle_o than_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o speak_v in_o a_o calm_a there_o be_v a_o truth_n in_o that_o three_o the_o lord_n answer_v in_o a_o whirlwind_n that_o be_v while_o job_n both_o as_o to_o his_o outward_a
