Job: Who Can Understand God’s Majesty?

¹ Then Job answered:² “How you have helped the powerless and saved the arm that is feeble!³ How you have counseled the unwise and provided fully sound insight!⁴ To whom have you uttered these words? And whose spirit spoke through you?

⁵ The dead tremble—those who dwell beneath the waters.⁶ Sheol is naked before Him, and Abaddon^(a) has no covering.⁷ He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth upon nothing.⁸ He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their own weight.⁹ He covers the face of the full moon^(a), spreading over it His cloud.¹⁰ He has inscribed a horizon on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.¹¹ The foundations of heaven quake, astounded at His rebuke.¹² By His power He stirred the sea; by His understanding He shattered Rahab.¹³ By His breath the skies were cleared; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.¹⁴ Indeed, these are but the fringes of His ways; how faint is the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?”
