  • Job’s Ninth Speech: A Response to Bildad

    Then Job spoke again:
  • Job: who Can Understand God's Majesty

    And Job answered and said,
  • “How you have helped the powerless!
    How you have saved the weak!
  • How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
  • How you have enlightened my stupidity!
    What wise advice you have offered!
  • How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
  • Where have you gotten all these wise sayings?
    Whose spirit speaks through you?
  • For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
  • “The dead tremble —
    those who live beneath the waters.
  • The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
  • The underworlda is naked in God’s presence.
    The place of destructionb is uncovered.
  • Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
  • God stretches the northern sky over empty space
    and hangs the earth on nothing.
  • He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
  • He wraps the rain in his thick clouds,
    and the clouds don’t burst with the weight.
  • He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
  • He covers the face of the moon,c
    shrouding it with his clouds.
  • He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
  • He created the horizon when he separated the waters;
    he set the boundary between day and night.
  • He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
  • The foundations of heaven tremble;
    they shudder at his rebuke.
  • The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
  • By his power the sea grew calm.
    By his skill he crushed the great sea monster.d
  • He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
  • His Spirit made the heavens beautiful,
    and his power pierced the gliding serpent.
  • By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
  • These are just the beginning of all that he does,
    merely a whisper of his power.
    Who, then, can comprehend the thunder of his power?”
  • Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
