| 26:1 |
Then Job answered:
|
| 26:2 |
"How you have helped one who has no power! How you have assisted the arm that has no strength!
|
| 26:3 |
How you have counseled one who has no wisdom, and given much good advice!
|
| 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 Zaphon 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 torn open by them.
|
| 26:9 |
He covers the face of the full moon, and spreads over it his cloud.
|
| 26:10 |
He has described a circle on 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 struck down Rahab.
|
| 26:13 |
By his wind the heavens were made fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
|
| 26:14 |
These are indeed 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?"
