# Chapter 26
|
|
1. But Job answered and said:
|
|
|
|
2. "How have you helped _him who is_ without power?
|
|
_How_ have you saved the arm _that has_ no strength?
|
|
|
|
3. How have you counseled _one who has_ no wisdom?
|
|
And _how_ have you declared sound advice to many?
|
|
|
|
4. To whom have you uttered words?
|
|
And whose spirit came from you?
|
|
|
|
5. "The dead tremble,
|
|
Those under the waters and those inhabiting them.
|
|
|
|
6. Sheol _is_ naked before Him,
|
|
And Destruction has no covering.
|
|
|
|
7. He stretches out the north over empty space;
|
|
_He_ hangs the earth on nothing.
|
|
|
|
8. He binds up the water in His thick clouds,
|
|
Yet the clouds are not broken under it.
|
|
|
|
9. He covers the face of _His_ throne,
|
|
_And_ spreads His cloud over it.
|
|
|
|
10. He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters,
|
|
At the boundary of light and darkness.
|
|
|
|
11. The pillars of heaven tremble,
|
|
And are astonished at His rebuke.
|
|
|
|
12. He stirs up the sea with His power,
|
|
And by His understanding He breaks up the storm.
|
|
|
|
13. By His Spirit He adorned the heavens;
|
|
His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
|
|
|
|
14. Indeed these _are_ the mere edges of His ways,
|
|
And how small a whisper we hear of Him!
|
|
But the thunder of His power who can understand?"
