Job Chapter 26
1 | But Job answered and said, | |
2 | How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength? | |
3 | How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? | |
4 | To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee? | |
5 | Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. | |
6 | Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. | |
7 | He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. | |
8 | He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. | |
9 | He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it. | |
10 | He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end. | |
11 | The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. | |
12 | He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. | |
13 | By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. | |
14 | Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand? |
