26:1  Then Job answered, and said:
26:2  Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?
26:3  To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.
26:4  Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?
26:5  Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.
26:6  Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction.
26:7  He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
26:8  He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.
26:9  He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.
26:10  He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.
26:11  The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.
26:12  By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.
26:13  His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding serpent.
26:14  Lo, these things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?
