| 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? |
