The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Quis dedit vehementissimo imbri cursum, et viam sonantis tonitrui,
Septuagint (Swete)
τίς δὲ ἡτοίμασεν ὑετῷ λάβρῳ ῥύσιν, ὁδὸν δὲ κυδοιμῶν,
Hebrew (WLC)
מִֽי פִלַּ֣ג לַשֶּׁ֣טֶף תְּעָלָ֑ה וְ֝דֶ֗רֶךְ לַחֲזִ֥יז קֹלֽוֹת

Haydock's commentary

Noisy. Hebrew, "for lightning, which accompanies thunder?" By these questions, respecting things which to man are impossible, and many inexplicable, God humbles (Calmet) the pride of the human heart. (Haydock)
