Hearken unto this - Hear what I say on the part of God. Stand still - Enter into deep contemplation on the subject.
And consider - Weigh every thing; examine separately and collectively; and draw right conclusions from the whole.
The wondrous works of God - Endless in their variety; stupendous in their structure; complicated in their parts; indescribable in their relations and connections; and incomprehensible in the mode of their formation, in the cohesion of their parts, and in the ends of their creation.
Barnes's Job 37:14 Bible Commentary

Stand still - In a posture of reverence and attention. The object is to secure a calm contemplation of the works of God, so that the mind might be filled with suitable reverence for him.
Wesley's Job 37:14 Bible Commentary
37:14 Consider - If there be so much matter of wonder in the most obvious works of God, how wonderful must his secret counsels be?
