Job 26
1 Iob aunswered, and sayde:2 Who hast thou helped? Him that is without strength? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?3 Where is the counsayle that thou shouldest geue him which hath no wisdome? Hast thou shewed the way of right lyuing?4 To whom hast thou spoken these wordes? who made the breath to come out of thy mouth?
5 Are not dead thinges shapen vnder the waters, and thinges by the waters side?6 He is naked before him, and the very destruction it selfe can not be hyd out of his sight.7 He stretcheth out the noorth ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.8 He byndeth the water in his cloudes, & the cloude is not broken vnder them.9 He holdeth backe the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloude before it.10 He hath compassed the waters with certayne boundes, vntill the day and night come to an ende.11 The very pillers of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.12 He stilleth the sea with his power, and through his wysdome smyteth he the strength therof.13 His spirite hath garnished the heauens, & his hand hath made the crooked serpent.14 Lo, this is now a short summe of his wayes: but howe litle a portion heare we of hym? who can vnderstande the thunder of his power?
