Job 37:18

will you, with him, spread out ¹  the clouds, solid as a mirror of molten metal?

can you join him in spreading out the skies, hard as a mirror of cast bronze?

"Can you, with Him, spread out the skies, Strong as a molten mirror?

he makes the skies reflect the heat like a giant mirror. Can you do that?

So how could you even dream of making a dent in that hot-tin-roof sky?

Will you, with him, make the skies smooth, and strong as a polished looking-glass?

Can you, like him, spread out the skies, hard as a molten mirror?

With Him, have you spread out the skies, Strong as a cast metal mirror?

will you, with him, spread out ¹  the clouds, solid as a mirror of molten metal?

¹ tn The verb means “to beat out; to flatten,” and the analogy in the next line will use molten metal. From this verb is derived the word for the “firmament” in Gen 1:6-8, that canopy-like pressure area separating water above and water below.
