[1]And Job answered and said,[2]How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength![3]How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is![4]For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?[5]The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;[6]Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.[7]He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he 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 covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.[10]He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.[11]The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.[12]He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.[13]By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.[14]Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
