Job 25-26

Job 25

¹And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: --

²The rule and fear are with Him, Making peace in His high places.

³Is their any number to His troops? And on whom ariseth not His light?

⁴And what? is man righteous with God? And what? is he pure -- born of a woman?

⁵Lo -- unto the moon, and it shineth not, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.

⁶How much less man -- a grub, And the son of man -- a worm!

Job 26

¹And Job answereth and saith: --

²What -- thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!

³What -- thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.

⁴With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?

⁵The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.

⁶Naked is Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction.

⁷Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,

⁸Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.

⁹Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.

¹⁰A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.

¹¹Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.

¹²By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.

¹³By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.

¹⁴Lo, these are the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth understand?
