26 Then Job answered:
2 “You are no help to the helpless!
You have not aided the weak!
You have shown little understanding!
4 Who has helped you say these words?
And where did you get these ideas?
5 “The spirits of the dead tremble,
those who are beneath and in the waters.
destruction is uncovered before him.
7 God stretches the northern sky out over empty space
and hangs the earth on nothing.
8 He wraps up the waters in his thick clouds,
but the clouds do not break under their weight.
9 He covers the face of the moon,
spreading his clouds over it.
10 He draws the horizon like a circle on the water
at the place where light and darkness meet.
when he thunders at them.
12 With his power he quiets the sea;
by his wisdom he destroys Rahab, the sea monster.
13 He breathes, and the sky clears.
His hand stabs the fleeing snake.
14 And these are only a small part of God’s works.
We only hear a small whisper of him.
Who could understand God’s thundering power?”
