| Verse | |
| 1. But Job answered and said | |
| 2. How have you helped him who is without power? How have you saved the arm that has no strength? | |
| 3. How have you counseled one who has no wisdom? And how have you declared sound advice to many? | |
| 4. To whom have you uttered words? And whose spirit came from you? | |
| 5. The dead tremble, Those under the waters and those inhabiting them. | |
| 6. Sheol is naked before Him, And Destruction has no covering. | |
| 7. He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing. | |
| 8. He binds up the water in His thick clouds, Yet the clouds are not broken under it. | |
| 9. He covers the face of His throne, And spreads His cloud over it. | |
| 10. He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters, At the boundary of light and darkness. | |
| 11. The pillars of heaven tremble, And are astonished at His rebuke. | |
| 12. He stirs up the sea with His power, And by His understanding He breaks up the storm. | |
| 13. By His Spirit He adorned the heavens; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent. | |
| 14. Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways, And how small a whisper we hear of Him! But the thunder of His power who can understand?" |
