Job 26
Jubilee Bible 2000
26 ¶ Job answered and said,
2 How hast thou helped the one who has no power? Hast thou saved with thy arm the one who has no strength?
3 How hast thou counselled the one that has no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words, and whose is the spirit that comes forth from thee?
5 ¶ Dead things are formed under the waters and of its dwelling places.
6 Sheol is naked before him, and hell has no covering.
7 He stretches out the north wind over the empty place and hangs the earth upon nothing.
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 He holds back the face of his throne and spreads his cloud upon it.
10 He has compassed the waters with bounds until the end of light and darkness.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 He divides the sea with his power, and by his intelligence he smites its pride.
13 By his spirit he has adorned the heavens; his hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
14 Behold, these are parts of his ways; but how little a portion have we heard of him? For the thunder of his power, who shall understand?
Job 26
King James Version
26 But Job answered and said,
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, 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 holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
