Chapter 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? |
