Job 26

Job 26:1. And Job answereth and saith: --

Job 26:2 What--thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!

Job 26:3 What--thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.

Job 26:4 With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee? Job 26:5. The Rephaite (giant spirit), is writhing in pain, beneath the waters; also his inhabitants.

Job 26:6 Naked [is] Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction.

Job 26:7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,

Job 26:8 Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.

Job 26:9 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.

Job 26:10 A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.

Job 26:11 Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.

Job 26:12 By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.

Job 26:13 By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.


Job 26:14 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?
