1. Then Job answered, and said:
2. Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?
3. To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.
4. Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?
5. Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.
6. Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction.
7. He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8. He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.
