Job 26

luther1545 kjv valera ls1910

¹Then Job answered and said, ²How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength! ³How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge! ⁴To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee? ⁵They that are deceased tremble Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof. ⁶Sheol is naked beforeGod, And Abaddon hath no covering. ⁷He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing. ⁸He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them. ⁹He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it. ¹⁰He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, Unto the confines of light and darkness. ¹¹The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke. ¹²He stirreth up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab. ¹³By his Spirit the heavens are garnished; His hand hath pierced the swift serpent. ¹⁴Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways: And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
