26:1  Then Job answered:
26:2  “Bildad, what a great help you are to this tired, weary man! You have really supported me!
26:3  You have given such wonderful advice to this foolish man! You have provided so much useful information!
26:4  Who helped you say these things? Whose spirit inspired you to speak?
26:5  “The ghosts and their neighbors in the underworld shake with fear.
26:6  But God can see clearly into that place of death. Death is not hidden from God.
26:7  God stretched the northern sky over empty space. He hung the earth on nothing.
26:8  He fills the thick clouds with water. But he does not let its heavy weight break the clouds open.
26:9  He covers the face of the full moon. He spreads his clouds over it and hides it.
26:10  He drew the horizon on the ocean, like a circle where light and darkness meet.
26:11  The foundations that hold up the sky shake with fear when God threatens them.
26:12  With his own power God calmed the sea. With his wisdom he destroyed Rahab.
26:13  His breath made the skies clear. His hand destroyed the snake that tried to get away.
26:14  These are only a few of the amazing things God has done. We hear only a small whisper of God’s thundering power.”
