Job’s Ninth Speech: A Response to Bildad
26 Then Job spoke again:
2 “How you have helped the powerless!
How you have saved the weak!
3 How you have enlightened my stupidity!
What wise advice you have offered!
4 Where have you gotten all these wise sayings?
Whose spirit speaks through you?

Job’s Ninth Speech: A Response to Bildad
26 Then[a] Job answered and said,
2 “How you[b] have helped one who has no power![c]
How you[d] have assisted the arm that has no strength![e]
3 How you[f] have advised one who has no wisdom![g]
And what sound wisdom you[h] have made known in abundance![i]
4 With whose help[j] have you[k] uttered words,
and whose breath has come forth from you?[l]
