Job 26
Common English Bible
Sarcasm
26 Then Job said:
2 How well you have helped the weak,
        saved those with frail arms,
3     advised one lacking wisdom,
        informed many with insight!
4 With whom have you spoken;[a]
    whose breath was expelled from you?
Truth about God
5 The dead writhe,
    the inhabitants beneath the waters as well.
6 The grave[b] is naked before God;
    the underworld[c] lacks covering.
7 He stretched the North[d] over chaos,
    hung earth over nothing;
8     wrapped up water in his clouds,
        yet they didn’t burst out below;
9     hid the face of the full moon,[e]
        spreading his cloud over it;
10     traced a circle on the water’s surface,
        at the limit of light and darkness.
11 Heaven’s pillars shook,
    terrified by his blast.
12 By his power he stilled the Sea;
    split Rahab with his cleverness.
13 Due to his wind, heaven became clear;
    his hand split the fleeing serpent.
14 Look, these are only the outer fringe of his ways;
    we hear only a whispered word about him.
    Who can understand his thunderous power?
Иов 26
Библия, синодално издание
26 Отговори Иов и рече:
2 как помогна ти на безсилния, поддържа мишцата на слабия!
3 Какъв съвет даде ти на немъдрия и как напълно обясни работата!
4 Кому говори тия думи, и чий дух излизаше из тебе?
5 (A)Рефаимите треперят под водите, и под живеещите в тях.
6 (B)Преизподнята е открита пред Него, и няма покривало за Авадона.
7 (C)Прострял е Той север над празнотата, окачил е земята на нищо.
8 (D)Той заключва водите в облаците Си, и облакът под тях се не разтваря.
9 Поставил е престола Си и е прострял над него Своя облак.
10 (E)Прокарал е черта над водната повърхност, до предела между светлината и тъмата.
11 (F)Стълбовете небесни треперят и се ужасяват от Неговите трясъци.
12 (G)Със силата Си вълнува морето и с разума Си поразява дързостта му.
13 Неговият Дух е дал великолепието на небето; ръката Му е създала бързата скорпия.
14 Ето, това са части от пътищата Му; и колко малко сме слушали за Него! А кой може разумя гърма на Неговата мощ?
Job 26
King James Version
26 But Job answered and said,
2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 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?
