Yahweh continues to challenge Job.
# Is it by your wisdom ... for the south?
Yahweh uses this question to prove that Job is not as great as Yahweh. The implicit answer to this question is "no." Alternate translation: "It is not by your wisdom ... for the south." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
# stretches out his wings for the south
Here the stretching out of his wings refers to flying. Alternate translation: "flies to the south" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# for the south
In the biblical geography, birds fly south during the winter in order to live in warmer climates.
