| Chapter 26 |
1 |
And Job answereth and saith: -- |
2 |
What -- thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong! |
3 |
What -- thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known. |
4 |
With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee? |
5 |
The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants. |
6 |
Naked is Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction. |
7 |
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing, |
8 |
Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them. |
9 |
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud. |
10 |
A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness. |
11 |
Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke. |
12 |
By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud. |
13 |
By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent. |
14 |
Lo, these are the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth understand? |
