| # Chapter 26
#### 1 | Then Job answered,
#### 2 | 'How have you helped him who is without power! How have you saved the arm that has no strength!
#### 3 | How have you counseled him who has no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge!
#### 4 | To whom have you uttered words? Whose spirit came forth from you?
#### 5 | 'Those who are deceased tremble, Those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
#### 6 | Sheol is naked before God, And Abaddon has no covering.
#### 7 | He stretches out the north over empty space, And hangs the earth on nothing.
#### 8 | He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
#### 9 | He encloses the face of his throne, And spreads his cloud on it.
#### 10 | He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters, And to the confines of light and darkness.
#### 11 | The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke.
#### 12 | He stirs up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he strikes through Rahab.
#### 13 | By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
#### 14 | Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?'
