Job 26
1 Then Job answered and said,
respondens autem Iob dixit
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
cuius adiutor es numquid inbecilli et sustentas brachium eius qui non est fortis
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge!
cui dedisti consilium forsitan illi qui non habet sapientiam et prudentiam tuam ostendisti plurimam
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
quem docere voluisti nonne eum qui fecit spiramen tuum
5 They that are deceased tremble Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
ecce gigantes gemunt sub aquis et qui habitant cum eis
nudus est inferus coram illo et nullum est operimentum perditioni (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.
qui extendit aquilonem super vacuum et adpendit terram super nihili
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them.
qui ligat aquas in nubibus suis ut non erumpant pariter deorsum
9 He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it.
qui tenet vultum solii sui et expandit super illud nebulam suam
10 He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, Unto the confines of light and darkness.
terminum circumdedit aquis usque dum finiantur lux et tenebrae
11 The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke.
columnae caeli contremescunt et pavent ad nutum eius
12 He stirreth up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
in fortitudine illius repente maria congregata sunt et prudentia eius percussit superbum
13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished; His hand hath pierced the swift serpent.
spiritus eius ornavit caelos et obsetricante manu eius eductus est coluber tortuosus
14 Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways: And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
ecce haec ex parte dicta sunt viarum eius et cum vix parvam stillam sermonis eius audierimus quis poterit tonitruum magnitudinis illius intueri
