26 Then Job replied:
2 “How you have helped the powerless!r
How you have saved the arm that is feeble!s
3 What advice you have offered to one without wisdom!
And what great insightt you have displayed!
4 Who has helped you utter these words?
And whose spirit spoke from your mouth?u
5 “The dead are in deep anguish,v
those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
6 The realm of the deadw is naked before God;
Destructiona x lies uncovered.y
7 He spreads out the northern skiesz over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.a
8 He wraps up the watersb in his clouds,c
yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
9 He covers the face of the full moon,
spreading his cloudsd over it.
10 He marks out the horizon on the face of the waterse
for a boundary between light and darkness.f
11 The pillars of the heavens quake,g
aghast at his rebuke.
12 By his power he churned up the sea;h
by his wisdomi he cut Rahabj to pieces.
13 By his breath the skiesk became fair;
his hand pierced the gliding serpent.l
14 And these are but the outer fringe of his works;
how faint the whisperm we hear of him!n
Who then can understand the thunder of his power?”o
