26:1 |
Then Job answered:
|
26:2 |
'How you have helped him who has no power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
|
26:3 |
How you have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
|
26:4 |
With whose help have you uttered words, and whose spirit has come forth from you?
|
26:5 |
The shades below tremble, the waters and their inhabitants.
|
26:6 |
Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.
|
26:7 |
He stretches out the north over the void, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
|
26:8 |
He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
|
26:9 |
He covers the face of the moon, and spreads over it his cloud.
|
26:10 |
He has described a circle upon the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.
|
26:11 |
The pillars of heaven tremble, and are astounded at his rebuke.
|
26:12 |
By his power he stilled the sea;by his understanding he smote Rahab.
|
26:13 |
By his wind the heavens were made fair;his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
|
26:14 |
Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways;and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?'
