Job 26
1 Respondens autem Job dixit:
Bvt Iob answered, and sayde,
2 [Cujus adjutor es? numquid imbecillis? et sustentas brachium ejus qui non est fortis?
Whom helpest thou? him that hath no power? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?
3 Cui dedisti consilium? forsitan illi qui non habet sapientiam: et prudentiam tuam ostendisti plurimam.
Whome counsellest thou? him that hath no wisedome? thou shewest right well as the thing is.
4 Quem docere voluisti? nonne eum qui fecit spiramentum?
To whom doest thou declare these words? or whose spirit commeth out of thee?
5 Ecce gigantes gemunt sub aquis, et qui habitant cum eis.
The dead things are formed vnder the waters, and neere vnto them.
The graue is naked before him, and there is no couering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)
7 Qui extendit aquilonem super vacuum, et appendit terram super nihilum.
He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.
8 Qui ligat aquas in nubibus suis, ut non erumpant pariter deorsum.
He bindeth the waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder them.
9 Qui tenet vultum solii sui, et expandit super illud nebulam suam.
He holdeth backe the face of his throne: and spreadeth his cloude vpon it.
10 Terminum circumdedit aquis, usque dum finiantur lux et tenebræ.
He hath set bounds about the waters, vntil the day and night come to an ende.
11 Columnæ cæli contremiscunt, et pavent ad nutum ejus.
The pillars of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.
12 In fortitudine illius repente maria congregata sunt, et prudentia ejus percussit superbum.
The sea is calme by his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth the pride thereof.
13 Spiritus ejus ornavit cælos, et obstetricante manu ejus, eductus est coluber tortuosus.
His Spirite hath garnished the heauens, and his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 Ecce hæc ex parte dicta sunt viarum ejus: et cum vix parvam stillam sermonis ejus audierimus, quis poterit tonitruum magnitudinis illius intueri?]
Loe, these are part of his wayes: but how litle a portion heare we of him? and who can vnderstand his fearefull power?
