Another quote originally in Hebrew

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire: but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
