Job 26
1 And he answered Job and he said.
Then Job answered and said:
2 How! you have helped not power you have saved [the] arm not strength.
How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
3 How! you have counseled not wisdom and sound wisdom for abundance you have made known.
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
4 Whom? have you told words and [the] breath of whom? has it gone out from you.
With whose help hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
5 The shades they are made to tremble under [the] waters and [those which] dwell in them.
The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
The nether-world is naked before Him, and Destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)

10 A limit he has drawn a circle on [the] surface of [the] waters to [the] end of light with darkness.
He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
11 [the] pillars of Heaven they shake and they may be astonished from rebuke his.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at His rebuke.

By His breath the heavens are serene; His hand hath pierced the slant serpent.
