26:1  Then Job said:
26:2  How well you have helped the weak, saved those with frail arms,
26:3  advised one lacking wisdom, informed many with insight!
26:4  With whom have you spoken; whose breath was expelled from you?
26:5  The dead writhe, the inhabitants beneath the waters as well.
26:6  The grave is naked before God; the underworld lacks covering.
26:7  He stretched the North over chaos, hung earth over nothing;
26:8  wrapped up water in his clouds, yet they didn’t burst out below;
26:9  hid the face of the full moon, spreading his cloud over it;
26:10  traced a circle on the water’s surface, at the limit of light and darkness.
26:11  Heaven’s pillars shook, terrified by his blast.
26:12  By his power he stilled the Sea; split Rahab with his cleverness.
26:13  Due to his wind, heaven became clear; his hand split the fleeing serpent.
26:14  Look, these are only the outer fringe of his ways; we hear only a whispered word about him. Who can understand his thunderous power?
