LEB - Job - 26

26:1  Then Job answered and said,

26:2  “How you have helped ⌞one who has no power⌟! How you have assisted the arm ⌞that has no strength⌟!

26:3  How you have advised ⌞one who has no wisdom⌟! And what sound wisdom you have made known ⌞in abundance⌟!

26:4  ⌞With whose help⌟ have you uttered words, and whose breath has come forth from you?

26:5  “The spirits of the dead tremble below the waters and their inhabitants.

26:6  Sheol is naked before him, and there is no covering for Abaddon.

26:7  He stretches out the north over emptiness; he hangs the earth ⌞over nothing⌟.

26:8  He ties up the water in its clouds, and the cloud is not torn open beneath it.

26:9  He covers the face of the full moon; he spreads his cloud over it.

26:10  ⌞He has described a circle⌟ on the face of the water ⌞between light and darkness⌟.

26:11  “The pillars of heaven tremble, and they are astounded at his rebuke.

26:12  By his power he stilled the sea, and by his understanding he struck down Rahab.

26:13  By his breath ⌞the heavens were made clear⌟; his hand pierced the fleeing snake.

26:14  Look, these are the outer fringes of his ways, and ⌞how faint is the word⌟ that we hear of him! But who can understand the thunder of his power?”
