¹ And Job answered and said:² How have you helped the powerless, or saved the arm with no strength?³ How have you advised the ones not wise or fully declared wise plans?⁴ With whom have you spoken words? And whose breath came forth from you?

⁵ The departed spirits are made to writhe from beneath the waters, and their inhabitants.⁶ Sheol is naked before Him, and the Pit has no covering.⁷ He stretched out the north over the empty place; and He hung the earth on nothing.⁸ He binds up the waters in His thick clouds; and the cloud does not burst under them.⁹ He covers the face of His throne, spreading His cloud over it.¹⁰ He has described a circle on the surface of the waters to the boundary of light with darkness.¹¹ The pillars of the heavens tremble and are stunned at His rebuke.¹² With His power He quiets the sea, and by His understanding He shatters pride.¹³ By His Spirit the heavens were beautiful; His hand pierced the fleeing snake.¹⁴ Lo, these are the edges of His ways; yea, what a whisper of a word we hear of Him! And the thunder of His might who can understand?
