< Job 26 >

1 And he answered Job and he said.
Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Whos helpere art thou?
2 How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
whether `of the feble, and susteyneste the arm of hym, which is not strong?
3 How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
To whom hast thou youe counsel? In hap to hym that hath not wisdom; and thou hast schewid ful myche prudence.
4 Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
Ether whom woldist thou teche? whether not hym, that made brething?
5 The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
Lo! giauntis weilen vnder watris, and thei that dwellen with hem.
6 [is] naked Sheol before him and not a covering [belongs] to Abaddon. (Sheol h7585)
Helle is nakid bifor hym, and noon hilyng is to perdicioun. (Sheol h7585)
7 [he] stretches out [the] north Over emptiness [he] hangs [the] earth on not whatever.
Which God stretchith forth the north on voide thing, and hangith the erthe on nouyt.
8 [he] binds up Waters in clouds his and not it is split open [the] cloud under them.
`Which God byndith watris in her cloudis, that tho breke not out togidere dounward.
9 [he] covers [the] presence of [the] throne He spreads over it cloud his.
`Whych God holdith the cheer of his seete, and spredith abrood theron his cloude.
10 A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
He hath cumpassid a terme to watris, til that liyt and derknessis be endid.
11 [the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
The pilers of heuene tremblen, and dreden at his wille.
12 By power his he stirred up the sea (and by understanding his *Q(k)*) he shattered Rahab.
In the strengthe of hym the sees weren gaderid togidere sudeynly, and his prudence smoot the proude.
13 By wind his [the] heavens [are] clearness it pierced hand his [the] snake fleeing.
His spiryt ournede heuenes, and the crokid serpent was led out bi his hond, ledynge out as a mydwijf ledith out a child.
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 thingis ben seid in partie of `hise weyes; and whanne we han herd vnnethis a litil drope of his word, who may se the thundur of his greetnesse?
