The Book of Job

26: 1Then Job answered and said,

 26:2How hast thou helped him that is without power!

 How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!

 26:3How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom,

 And plentifully declared sound knowledge!

 26:4To whom hast thou uttered words?

 And whose spirit came forth from thee?
 
 

 26:5They that are deceased tremble

 Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.

 26:6Sheol is naked before God,

 And Abaddon hath no covering.

 26:7He stretcheth out the north over empty space,

 And hangeth the earth upon nothing.

 26:8He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds;

 And the cloud is not rent under them.

 26:9He incloseth the face of his throne,

 And spreadeth his cloud upon it.

 26:10He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters,

 Unto the confines of light and darkness.

 26:11The pillars of heaven tremble

 And are astonished at his rebuke.

 26:12He stirreth up the sea with his power,

 And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.

 26:13By his Spirit the heavens are garnished;

 His hand hath pierced the swift serpent.

 26:14Lo, 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?
