Job 26

1 But Job answered and said,⋮

2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?⋮

3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?⋮

4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?⋮

5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.⋮

6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.⋮

7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.⋮

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

9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.⋮

10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.⋮

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

12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.⋮

13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.⋮

14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?⋮
