| # Chapter 26
#### 1 | Then Job answered, and said:
#### 2 | Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?
#### 3 | To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.
#### 4 | Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?
#### 5 | Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.
#### 6 | Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction.
#### 7 | He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
#### 8 | He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.
#### 9 | He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.
#### 10 | He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.
#### 11 | The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.
#### 12 | By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.
#### 13 | His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding serpent.
#### 14 | Lo, these things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?
