26:1  Then Job answered and said,
26:2  How hast thou helped him that is without power! how hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
26:3  How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
26:4  To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came forth from thee?
26:5  They that are deceased tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
26:6  Sheol is naked before him, and Abaddon hath no covering.
26:7  He stretcheth out the north over empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
26:8  He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
26:9  He closeth in the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
26:10  He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
26:11  The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
26:12  He stirreth up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
26:13  By his spirit the heavens are garnished; his hand hath pierced the swift 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?
