Iyov (Job) 26
26
1Then Iyov replied,
2“What great help you bring to the powerless!
what deliverance to the arm without strength!
3Such wonderful advice for a man lacking wisdom!
So much common sense you’ve expressed!
4Who helped you to say these words?
Whose spirit is it, coming forth from you?
5“The ghosts of the dead tremble
beneath the water, with its creatures.
6Sh’ol is naked before him;
Abaddon lies uncovered.
7He stretches the north over chaos
and suspends the earth on nothing.
8He binds up the water in his thick clouds,
yet no cloud is torn apart by it.
9He shuts off the view of his throne
by spreading his cloud across it.
10He fixed a circle on the surface of the water,
defining the boundary between light and dark.
11The pillars of heaven tremble,
aghast at his rebuke.
12He stirs up the sea with his power,
and by his skill he strikes down Rahav.
13With his Spirit he spreads the heavens;
his hand pierces the fleeing serpent.
14And these are but the fringes of his ways;
how faint the echo we hear of him!
But who is able to grasp the meaning
of his thundering power?”

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?”
