Job 26
1 And he answered Job and he said.
Then Job made answer and said,
2 How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
How have you given help to him who has no power! how have you been the salvation of the arm which has no strength!
3 How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
How have you given teaching to him who has no wisdom, and fully made clear true knowledge!
4 Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
To whom have your words been said? and whose spirit came out from you?
5 The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
The shades in the underworld are shaking; the waters and those living in them.
The underworld is uncovered before him, and Destruction has no veil. (Sheol h7585)
7 [he] stretches out [the] north Over emptiness [he] hangs [the] earth on not whatever.
By his hand the north is stretched out in space, and the earth is hanging on nothing.
8 [he] binds up Waters in clouds his and not it is split open [the] cloud under them.
By him the waters are shut up in his thick clouds, and the cloud does not give way under them.
9 [he] covers [the] presence of [the] throne He spreads over it cloud his.
By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and his cloud stretched out over it.
10 A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
By him a circle is marked out on the face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark.
11 [the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
The pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words.
12 By power his he stirred up the sea (and by understanding his *Q(k)*) he shattered Rahab.
By his power the sea was made quiet; and by his wisdom Rahab was wounded.
13 By wind his [the] heavens [are] clearness it pierced hand his [the] snake fleeing.
By his wind the heavens become bright: by his hand the quickly moving snake was cut through.
14 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.
See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.
