Job 26

₂How hast thou helped him that is without power?

How savest thou the arm that hath no strength?

₃How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom?

And how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

₄To whom hast thou uttered words?

And whose spirit came from thee?

₅Dead things are formed

From under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

₆Hell is naked before him,

And destruction hath no covering.

₇He stretcheth out the north over the empty place,

And hangeth the earth upon nothing.

₈He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds;

And the cloud is not rent under them.

₉He holdeth back the face of his throne,

And spreadeth his cloud upon it.

₁₀He hath compassed the waters with bounds,

Until the day and night come to an end.

₁₁The pillars of heaven tremble

And are astonished at his reproof.

₁₂He divideth the sea with his power,

And by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

₁₃By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens;

His hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

₁₄Lo, these are parts of his ways:

But how little a portion is heard of him?

But the thunder of his power who can understand?
