Job 26:5-11
English Standard Version
5 The (A)dead tremble
under the waters and their inhabitants.
6 Sheol is (B)naked before God,[a]
and (C)Abaddon has no covering.
7 He (D)stretches out the north over (E)the void
and hangs the earth on nothing.
8 He (F)binds up the waters in his thick clouds,
and the cloud is not split open under them.
9 He covers the face of the full moon[b]
and (G)spreads over it his cloud.
10 He has inscribed (H)a circle on the face of the waters
at the boundary between light and darkness.
11 (I)The pillars of heaven tremble
and are astounded at his (J)rebuke.
Job 26:5-11

5 “The dead are in deep anguish,(A)
those beneath the waters and all that live in them.

Destruction[a](C) lies uncovered.(D)
7 He spreads out the northern skies(E) over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.(F)
8 He wraps up the waters(G) in his clouds,(H)
yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
9 He covers the face of the full moon,
spreading his clouds(I) over it.

for a boundary between light and darkness.(K)

aghast at his rebuke.
