Job: Who Can Understand God’s Majesty?

¹Then Job made answer and said,+ ²How have you given help to him who has no power! how have you been the salvation of the arm which has no strength!+ ³How have you given teaching to him who has no wisdom, and fully made clear true knowledge!+ ⁴To whom have your words been said? and whose spirit came out from you?+ ⁵The shades in the underworld are shaking; the waters and those living in them.+ ⁶The underworld is uncovered before him, and Destruction has no veil.+ ⁷By his hand the north is stretched out in space, and the earth is hanging on nothing.+ ⁸By him the waters are shut up in his thick clouds, and the cloud does not give way under them.+ ⁹By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and his cloud stretched out over it.+ ¹⁰By him a circle is marked out on the face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark.+ ¹¹The pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words.+ ¹²By his power the sea was made quiet; and by his wisdom Rahab was wounded.+ ¹³By his wind the heavens become bright: by his hand the quickly moving snake was cut through.+ ¹⁴See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.+
