Job 约伯记26

26Then Job replied:
2"How you have helped the powerless! How you have saved the arm that is feeble!
3What advice you have offered to one without wisdom! And what great insight you have displayed!
4Who has helped you utter these words? And whose spirit spoke¹ from your mouth?
5"The dead are in deep anguish², those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
6Death is naked before God; Destruction lies uncovered.
7He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.
8He wraps up the waters in his clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
9He covers the face of the full moon, spreading his clouds over it.
10He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters for a boundary between light and darkness.
11The pillars of the heavens quake, aghast at his rebuke³.
12By his power he churned up the sea; by his wisdom he cut Rahab to pieces.
13By his breath the skies became fair; his hand pierced the gliding⁴ serpent.
14And these are but the outer fringe of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of him! Who then can understand the thunder of his power?"
