26:1  Then Job answered and said,
26:2  “What a help you are to the one without power! How you have saved the arm without strength!
26:3  What counsel you have given to one without wisdom! What sound wisdom you have abundantly made known!
26:4  To whom have you declared words? And whose breath comes out from you?
26:5  “The departed spirits tremble Under the waters and their inhabitants.
26:6  Naked is Sheol before Him, And Abaddon has no covering.
26:7  He stretches out the north over what is formless And hangs the earth on nothing.
26:8  He wraps up the waters in His clouds, And the cloud does not break out under them.
26:9  He obscures the face of His throne And spreads His cloud over it.
26:10  He has marked a circle on the surface of the waters At the boundary of light and darkness.
26:11  The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at His rebuke.
26:12  He quieted the sea with His power, And by His understanding He crushed Rahab.
26:13  By His breath the heavens are made beautiful; His hand has pierced the fleeing serpent.
26:14  Behold, these are the fringes of His ways; And how only with a whisper of a word do we hear of Him! But His mighty thunder, who can understand?”
