Job 26
26
1Then Job answered and said,
2How hast thou helped him that is without power!
How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
3How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom,
And plentifully declared sound knowledge!
4To whom hast thou uttered words?
And whose spirit came forth from thee?
5They that are deceased tremble
Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
6Sheol is naked before him,
And Abaddon hath no covering.
7He stretcheth out the north over empty space,
And hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds;
And the cloud is not rent under them.
9He closeth in the face of his throne,
And spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters,
Unto the confines of light and darkness.
11The pillars of heaven tremble
And are astonished at his rebuke.
12He stirreth up the sea with his power,
And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
13By his spirit the heavens are garnished;
His hand hath pierced the swift serpent.
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?

Job 26

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?”
