1: But Job answered and said, |
|
2: How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest
thou the arm that hath no strength? |
|
3:
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast
thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? |
|
4: To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from
thee? |
|
5: Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the
inhabitants thereof. |
|
6: Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
|
|
7: He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth
the earth upon nothing. |
|
8: He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is
not rent under them. |
|
9: He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his
cloud upon it. |
|
10: He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and
night come to an end. |
|
11: The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his
reproof. |
|
12: He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding
he smiteth through the proud. |
|
13: By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath
formed the crooked serpent. |
|
14: Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is
heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand? |
