Job: Who Can Understand God’s Majesty?

1Iob aunswered, and sayde:

2Who hast thou helped? Him that is without strength? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?

3Where is the counsayle that thou shouldest geue him which hath no wisdome? Hast thou shewed the way of right lyuing?

4To whom hast thou spoken these wordes? who made the breath to come out of thy mouth?

5Are not dead thinges shapen vnder the waters, and thinges by the waters side?

6He is naked before him, and the very destruction it selfe can not be hyd out of his sight.

7He stretcheth out the noorth ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.

8He byndeth the water in his cloudes, & the cloude is not broken vnder them.

9He holdeth backe the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloude before it.

10He hath compassed the waters with certayne boundes, vntill the day and night come to an ende.

11The very pillers of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.

12He stilleth the sea with his power, and through his wysdome smyteth he the strength therof.

13His spirite hath garnished the heauens, & his hand hath made the crooked serpent.

14Lo, this is now a short summe of his wayes: but howe litle a portion heare we of hym? who can vnderstande the thunder of his power?
