On the left hand [and to the north] where He works [I seek Him], but I cannot behold Him; He turns Himself to the right hand [and to the south], but I cannot see Him.
AMP
On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:

Whether it be for correction or for His earth [generally] or for His mercy and loving-kindness, He causes it to come. [Exod. 9:18, 23; I Sam. 12:18, 19.]AMP
He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
