26:1  Then Job responded,
26:2  “What a help you are to the weak! You have saved the arm without strength!
26:3  What advice you have given to one without wisdom! What helpful insight you have abundantly provided!
26:4  To whom have you uttered words? And whose spirit was expressed through you?
26:5  “The departed spirits are made to tremble Under the waters and their inhabitants.
26:6  Sheol is naked before Him, And Abaddon has no covering.
26:7  He stretches out the north over empty space And hangs the earth on nothing.
26:8  He wraps up the waters in His clouds, And the cloud does not burst under them.
26:9  He obscures the face of the full moon And spreads His cloud over it.
26:10  He has inscribed a circle on the surface of the waters At the boundary of light and darkness.
26:11  The pillars of heaven tremble And are amazed at His rebuke.
26:12  With His power He quieted the sea, And by His understanding He shattered Rahab.
26:13  By His breath the heavens are cleared; His hand has pierced the fleeing serpent.
26:14  Behold, these are the fringes of His ways; And how faint a word we hear of Him! But His mighty thunder, who can understand?”
