26:1  Then Job answered,
26:2  “What a help you are to the weak! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
26:3  How you have given wise words to him who has no wisdom! How much true learning you have given!
26:4  To whom have your words been said? And from whose spirit have you spoken?
26:5  “The spirits of the dead shake under the waters and those living in them.
26:6  The place of the dead has no covering before God and the place that destroys has no covering.
26:7  He spreads out the north over empty waste, and hangs the earth on nothing.
26:8  He holds the waters in His clouds, and the cloud does not break under them.
26:9  He covers the face of the moon and spreads His cloud over it.
26:10  He has marked the sides around the waters where light and darkness are divided.
26:11  The pillars of heaven shake with fear. They are surprised and afraid of His sharp words.
26:12  He made the sea quiet by His power. And by His understanding He destroyed Rahab.
26:13  By His breath the heavens are made beautiful. His hand cut through the snake as it tried to get away.
26:14  See, these are only a few of the things He does. And how quiet are the words spoken about Him! But who can understand His powerful thunder?”
