< Job 26 >

1 And Job answereth and saith: —
And he answered Job and he said.
2 What — thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
3 What — thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.
How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
4 With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?
Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
5 The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.
The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
6 Naked [is] Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction. (Sheol h7585)
[is] naked Sheol before him and not a covering [belongs] to Abaddon. (Sheol h7585)
7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,
[he] stretches out [the] north Over emptiness [he] hangs [the] earth on not whatever.
8 Binding 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 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.
[he] covers [the] presence of [the] throne He spreads over it cloud his.
10 A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.
A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
11 Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
[the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
12 By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.
By power his he stirred up the sea (and by understanding his *Q(k)*) he shattered Rahab.
13 By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.
By wind his [the] heavens [are] clearness it pierced hand his [the] snake fleeing.
14 Lo, these [are] the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth 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.
