< Job 26 >
1 Then Job answered and said:
And he answered Job and he said.
2 How hast thou helped the weak, And strengthened the feeble arm!
How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
3 How hast thou counselled the ignorant, And revealed wisdom in fulness!
How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
4 For whom hast thou uttered these words? And whose spirit spake through thee?
Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
5 Before Him the shades tremble Beneath the waters and their inhabitants.
The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
6 The under-world is naked before him, And destruction is without covering. (Sheol )
[is] naked Sheol before him and not a covering [belongs] to Abaddon. (Sheol )
7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.
[he] stretches out [the] north Over emptiness [he] hangs [the] earth on not whatever.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.
[he] binds up Waters in clouds his and not it is split open [the] cloud under them.
9 He covereth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his clouds upon it.
[he] covers [the] presence of [the] throne He spreads over it cloud his.
10 He hath drawn a circular bound upon the waters, To the confines of light and darkness.
A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble And are confounded at his rebuke.
[the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
12 By his power he stilleth the sea, Yea, by his wisdom he smiteth its pride.
By power his he stirred up the sea (and by understanding his *Q(k)*) he shattered Rahab.
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; His hand hath formed the fleeing Serpent.
By wind his [the] heavens [are] clearness it pierced hand his [the] snake fleeing.
14 Lo! these are but the borders of his works; How faint the whisper we have heard of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
There! these - [are] [the] ends of (ways his *Q(K)*) and what! a whisper of a word we hear in it and [the] thunder of (mighty deeds his *Q(K)*) who? will he understand.
