CHAPTER 26
Job: Man’s Frailty and God’s Majesty
Job Rebukes Bildad and Praises God
1 But Job answered and said:
​
2 ​​“How have you helped him who is without power?
​​How have you saved the arm that has no strength?
3 ​​How have you counseled one who has no wisdom?
​​And how have you declared sound advice to many?
4 ​​To whom have you uttered words?
​​And whose spirit came from you?
​
5 ​​“The dead tremble,
​​Those under the waters and those inhabiting them.
6 ​​Sheol is naked before Him,
​​And Destruction has no covering.
7 ​​He stretches out the north over empty space;
​​He hangs the earth on nothing.
8 ​​He binds up the water in His thick clouds,
​​Yet the clouds are not broken under it.
9 ​​He covers the face of His throne,
​​And spreads His cloud over it.
10 ​​He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters,
​​At the boundary of light and darkness.
11 ​​The pillars of heaven tremble,
​​And are astonished at His rebuke.
12 ​​He stirs up the sea with His power,
​​And by His understanding He breaks up the storm.
13 ​​By His Spirit He adorned the heavens;
​​His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
14 ​​Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways,
​​And how small a whisper we hear of Him!
​​But the thunder of His power who can understand?”
