1 But Job answered and said, 2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength? 3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? 4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. 6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. 7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. 8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. 9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it. 10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end. 11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. 12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. 13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. 14 Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
1 Bvt Iob answered, and sayde, 2 Whom helpest thou? him that hath no power? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength? 3 Whome counsellest thou? him that hath no wisedome? thou shewest right well as the thing is. 4 To whom doest thou declare these words? or whose spirit commeth out of thee? 5 The dead things are formed vnder the waters, and neere vnto them. 6 The graue is naked before him, and there is no couering for destruction. 7 He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing. 8 He bindeth the waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder them. 9 He holdeth backe the face of his throne: and spreadeth his cloude vpon it. 10 He hath set bounds about the waters, vntil the day and night come to an ende. 11 The pillars of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe. 12 The sea is calme by his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth the pride thereof. 13 His Spirite hath garnished the heauens, and his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. 14 Loe, these are part of his wayes: but how litle a portion heare we of him? and who can vnderstand his fearefull power?
