Job 26
1Then Job answered,
-
2“How have you helped him who is without power!
- How have you saved the arm that has no strength!
-
3How have you counseled him who has no wisdom,
- and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
-
4To whom have you uttered words?
- Whose spirit came forth from you?
-
5“Those who are deceased tremble,
- those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
-
6
Sheol is naked before God,
- and Abaddon has no covering.
-
7He stretches out the north over empty space,
- and hangs the earth on nothing.
-
8He binds up the waters in his thick clouds,
- and the cloud is not burst under them.
-
9He encloses the face of his throne,
- and spreads his cloud on it.
-
10He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters,
- and to the confines of light and darkness.
-
11The pillars of heaven tremble
- and are astonished at his rebuke.
-
12He stirs up the sea with his power,
- and by his understanding he strikes through Rahab.
-
13By his Spirit the heavens are garnished.
- His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
-
14Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways.
- How small a whisper do we hear of him!
- But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
