KJV

But Job answered and said,

KJV

How hast thou helped [him that is] without power? [how] savest thou the arm [that hath] no strength?

KJV

How hast thou counselled [him that hath] no wisdom? and [how] hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

KJV

To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

KJV

Dead [things] are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

KJV

Hell [is] naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.

KJV

He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, [and] hangeth the earth upon nothing.

KJV

He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

KJV

He holdeth back the face of his throne, [and] spreadeth his cloud upon it.

KJV

He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

KJV

The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.

KJV

He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

KJV

By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

KJV

Lo, these [are] parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
