[1] Then Job made answer and said, [2] How have you given help to him who
has no power! how have you been the salvation of the arm which has no
strength! [3] How have you given teaching to him who has no wisdom, and
fully made clear true knowledge! [4] To whom have your words been said? and
whose spirit came out from you? [5] The shades in the underworld are
shaking; the waters and those living in them. [6] The underworld is
uncovered before him, and Destruction has no veil. [7] By his hand the
north is stretched out in space, and the earth is hanging on nothing. [8]
By him the waters are shut up in his thick clouds, and the cloud does not
give way under them. [9] By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and
his cloud stretched out over it. [10] By him a circle is marked out on the
face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark. [11] The
pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words. [12] By
his power the sea was made quiet; and by his wisdom Rahab was wounded. [13]
By his wind the heavens become bright: by his hand the quickly moving snake
was cut through. [14] See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and
how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his
acts of power is outside all knowledge.
