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