Job 26

1¶ Job answered and said,

2How hast thou helped the one who has no power? Hast thou saved with thy arm the one who has no strength?

3How hast thou counselled the one that has no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

4To whom hast thou uttered words, and whose is the spirit that comes forth from thee?

5¶ Dead things are formed under the waters and of its dwelling places.

6Sheol is naked before him, and hell has no covering.

7He stretches out the north wind over the empty place and hangs the earth upon nothing.

8He binds up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

9He holds back the face of his throne and spreads his cloud upon it.

10He has compassed the waters with bounds until the end of light and darkness.

11The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.

12He divides the sea with his power, and by his intelligence he smites its pride.

13By his spirit he has adorned the heavens; his hand has formed the fleeing serpent.

14Behold, these are parts of his ways; but how little a portion have we heard of him? For the thunder of his power, who shall understand?

Job: God is Awesome

1Then Job responded and said:

2“How you have helped the powerless! How you have saved the arm without strength!

3How you have counseled the one without wisdom and revealed your abundant insights!

4To whom have you uttered words? Whose spirit has come from your mouth?

5“The dead tremble— those beneath the water and all that live in them.

6Sheol is naked before Him; Abaddon has no covering.

7He stretches out the north over the void; He suspends the earth over nothing.

8He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under them.

9He covers the face of the full moon, spreading His clouds over it.

10He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters, for a boundary between light and dark.

11The pillars of heaven tremble, astounded at His rebuke!

12By His power He churns up the sea; by His understanding He smashed Rahab.

13By His Ruach the heavens are clear; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

14Indeed, these are but glimpses of His ways; how faint the whisper, we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His might?”
