Job 26

Job 26:1  
Then Job answered,

Job 26:2  
“How have you helped him who is without power! How have you saved the arm that has no strength!

Job 26:3  
How have you counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!

Job 26:4  
To whom have you uttered words? Whose spirit came out of you?

Job 26:5  
“The departed spirits tremble, those beneath the waters and all that live in them.

Job 26:6  
Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

Job 26:7  
He stretches out the north over empty space, and hangs the earth on nothing.

Job 26:8  
He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not burst under them.

Job 26:9  
He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud on it.

Job 26:10  
He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters, and to the confines of light and darkness.

Job 26:11  
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.

Job 26:12  
He stirs up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he strikes through Rahab.

Job 26:13  
By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.

Job 26:14  
Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
