# Job 26
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Then Job answered and said:
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. “How you have helped him who has no power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. How you have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. With whose help have you uttered words, and whose breath has come out from you?
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. The dead tremble under the waters and their inhabitants.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. He stretches out the north over the void and hangs the earth on nothing.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not split open under them.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. He covers the face of the full moon and spreads over it his cloud.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. He has inscribed a circle on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. The pillars of heaven tremble and are astounded at his rebuke.
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. By his power he stilled the sea; by his understanding he shattered Rahab.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. By his wind the heavens were made fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways, and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
(ESV)
