Sirach 43:11-16

¹¹ Look upon the rainbow, and praise him that made it; very beautiful it is in the brightness thereof.

¹² It compasseth the heaven about with a glorious circle, and the hands of the most High have bended it.

¹³ By his commandment he maketh the snow to fall aplace, and sendeth swiftly the lightnings of his judgment.

¹⁴ Through this the treasures are opened: and clouds fly forth as fowls.

¹⁵ By his great power he maketh the clouds firm, and the hailstones are broken small.

¹⁶ At his sight the mountains are shaken, and at his will the south wind bloweth.
