< Job 26 >

1 And he answered Job and he said.
BUT Job answered and said,
2 How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
3 How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 [is] naked Sheol before him and not a covering [belongs] to Abaddon. (Sheol h7585)
Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 [he] stretches out [the] north Over emptiness [he] hangs [the] earth on not whatever.
He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8 [he] binds up Waters in clouds his and not it is split open [the] cloud under them.
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 [he] covers [the] presence of [the] throne He spreads over it cloud his.
He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 [the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 By power his he stirred up the sea (and by understanding his *Q(k)*) he shattered Rahab.
He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
13 By wind his [the] heavens [are] clearness it pierced hand his [the] snake fleeing.
By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
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.
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?
