And Job answered and said,
How thou hast helped the powerless!{HR}Saved the arm that is strengthless
How thou hast counseled the unwise,{HR}And declared wisdom in abundance!
To whom hast thou uttered words?{HR}And whose breath came forth from thee?
The shades [Rephaim] tremble{HR}Beneath the waters, and they that dwell there.
Sheol [is] naked before him,{HR}And destruction hath no covering.
He spreadeth the north over the void,{HR}He hangeth the earth upon nothing.
He bindeth up waters in his thick clouds,{HR}And the cloud is not rent under them.
He fasteneth the face of the throne,{HR}He spreadeth over it his cloud.
He hath placed a bound on the face of the waters,{HR}Up to the limits of light and darkness.
The pillars of the heavens tremble,{HR}And are astonished at his rebuke.
By his power he stilleth the sea,{HR}And by his understanding smiteth Rahab.
By his Spirit the heavens are brightness,{HR}His hand pierceth the fleeing serpent.
Lo, these [are] the ends of his ways,{HR}And what a whisper of a word we hear of him!{HR}And the thunder of his might who understandeth?
