26:1  Then Job answered:
26:2  “How you have helped him who has no power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
26:3  How you have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
26:4  With whose help have you uttered words, and whose spirit has come forth from you?
26:5  The shades below tremble, the waters and their inhabitants.
26:6  Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.
26:7  He stretches out the north over the void, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
26:8  He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
26:9  He covers the face of the moon, and spreads over it his cloud.
26:10  He has described a circle upon the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.
26:11  The pillars of heaven tremble, and are astounded at his rebuke.
26:12  By his power he stilled the sea; by his understanding he smote Rahab.
26:13  By his wind the heavens were made fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
26:14  Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways; and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?”
