Job - Chapter 26 | American Standard Version

  • 1. Then Job answered and said,
  • 2. How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
  • 3. How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge!
  • 4. To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
  • 5. They that are deceased tremble Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
  • 6. Sheol is naked before {cf15i God}, And Abaddon hath no covering.
  • 7. He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.
  • 8. He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them.
  • 9. He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it.
  • 10. He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, Unto the confines of light and darkness.
  • 11. The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke.
  • 12. He stirreth up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
  • 13. By his Spirit the heavens are garnished; His hand hath pierced the swift serpent.
  • 14. Lo, 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?
