⁵ “The ^[a](C)departed spirits tremble
Under the waters and their inhabitants.
⁶ Naked is ^(D)Sheol before Him,
And ^[b](E)Abaddon has no covering.
⁷ He ^(F)stretches out the north over what is formless
And hangs the earth on nothing.
⁸ He ^(G)wraps up the waters in His clouds,
And the cloud does not break out under them.
⁹ He ^[c](H)obscures the face of His ^[d]throne
And spreads His cloud over it.
¹⁰ He has marked a ^(I)circle on the surface of the waters
At the ^(J)boundary of light and darkness.
¹¹ The pillars of heaven tremble
And are astonished at His rebuke.
¹² He ^(K)quieted the sea with His power,
And by His ^(L)understanding He crushed ^(M)Rahab.
¹³ By His breath the ^(N)heavens are made beautiful;
His hand has pierced ^(O)the fleeing serpent.
¹⁴ Behold, these are the fringes of His ways;
And how only with a whisper of ^(P)a word do we hear of Him!
But His mighty ^(Q)thunder, who can understand?”
