[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42]

26:1 Then Job answered and said,

26:2 How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!

26:3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge!

26:4 To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?

26:5 They that are deceased tremble Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.

26:6 Sheol is naked before `God', And Abaddon hath no covering.

26:7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.

26:8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them.

26:9 He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it.

26:10 He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, Unto the confines of light and darkness.

26:11 The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke.

26:12 He stirreth up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.

26:13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished; His hand hath pierced the swift 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?
