Jó 26
1 Porém Jó respondeu, dizendo:
Then Job responded by saying:
2 Como tende ajudado ao que não tem força, [e] sustentado ao braço sem vigor!
Whose assistant are you? Is he weak-minded? And do you sustain the arm of him that is not strong?
3 Como tende aconselhado ao que não tem conhecimento, e [lhe] explicaste detalhadamente a verdadeira causa!
To whom have you given advice? Perhaps it is to him that has no wisdom or prudence that you have revealed your many ideas.
4 A quem tens dito [tais] palavras? E de quem é o espírito que sai de ti?
Who is it that you wanted to teach? Was it not him that created the breath of life?
5 Os mortos tremem debaixo das águas com os seus moradores.
Behold, giant things groan under the waters, and they dwell with them.
The underworld is naked before him, and there is no covering for perdition. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ele estende o norte sobre o vazio, suspende a terra sobre o nada.
He stretched out the North over emptiness, and he suspended the land over nothing.
8 Ele amarra as águas em suas nuvens, todavia a nuvem não se rasga debaixo dela.
He secures the waters in his clouds, so that they do not burst forth downward all at once.
9 Ele encobre a face de seu trono, e sobre ele estende sua nuvem.
He holds back the face of his throne, and he stretches his cloud over it.
10 Ele determinou limite à superfície das águas, até a fronteira entre a luz e as trevas.
He has set limits around the waters, until light and darkness shall reach their limit.
11 As colunas do céu tremem, e se espantam por sua repreensão.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are frightened at his nod.
12 Ele agita o mar com seu poder, e com seu entendimento fere abate a Raabe.
By his strength, the seas suddenly gather together, and his foresight has struck the arrogant.
13 Por seu Espírito adornou os céus; sua mão perfurou a serpente veloz.
His spirit has adorned the heavens, and his birthing hand has brought forth the winding serpent.
14 Eis que estas são [somente] as bordas de seus caminhos; e quão pouco é o que temos ouvido dele! Quem, pois, entenderia o trovão de seu poder?
Behold, these things have been said about his ways in part, and, since we barely have heard a small drop of his word, who will be able to gaze upon the thunder of his greatness?
