1 וַיַּ֥עַן אִיּ֗וֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ Then Job answered: But Job answered and said,
2 מֶה־ עָזַ֥רְתָּ לְלֹא־ כֹ֑חַ ה֝וֹשַׁ֗עְתָּ זְר֣וֹעַ לֹא־ עֹֽז׃ “How you have helped the powerless and saved the arm that is feeble! How hast thou helped [him that is] without power? [how] savest thou the arm [that hath] no strength?
3 מַה־ יָּ֭עַצְתָּ לְלֹ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝תוּשִׁיָּ֗ה לָרֹ֥ב הוֹדָֽעְתָּ׃ How you have counseled the unwise and provided fully sound insight! How hast thou counselled [him that hath] no wisdom? and [how] hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 אֶת־ מִ֭י הִגַּ֣דְתָּ מִלִּ֑ין וְנִשְׁמַת־ מִ֝י יָצְאָ֥ה מִמֶּֽךָּ׃ To whom have you uttered these words? And whose spirit spoke through you? To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5 הָרְפָאִ֥ים יְחוֹלָ֑לוּ מִתַּ֥חַת מַ֝֗יִם וְשֹׁכְנֵיהֶֽם׃ The dead tremble— those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them. Dead [things] are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 עָר֣וֹם שְׁא֣וֹל נֶגְדּ֑וֹ וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדּֽוֹן׃ Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering. Hell [is] naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
7 נֹטֶ֣ה צָפ֣וֹן עַל־ תֹּ֑הוּ תֹּ֥לֶה אֶ֝֗רֶץ עַל־ בְּלִי־ מָֽה׃ He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth upon nothing. He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, [and] hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8 צֹרֵֽר־ מַ֥יִם בְּעָבָ֑יו וְלֹא־ נִבְקַ֖ע עָנָ֣ן תַּחְתָּֽם׃ He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their own weight. He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 מְאַחֵ֥ז פְּנֵי־ כִסֵּ֑ה פַּרְשֵׁ֖ז עָלָ֣יו עֲנָנֽוֹ׃ He covers the face of the full moon, spreading over it His cloud. He holdeth back the face of his throne, [and] spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10 חֹֽק־ חָ֭ג עַל־ פְּנֵי־ מָ֑יִם עַד־ תַּכְלִ֖ית א֣וֹר עִם־ חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃ He has inscribed a horizon on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness. He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 עַמּוּדֵ֣י שָׁמַ֣יִם יְרוֹפָ֑פוּ וְ֝יִתְמְה֗וּ מִגַּעֲרָתֽוֹ׃ The foundations of heaven quake, astounded at His rebuke. The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12 בְּ֭כֹחוֹ רָגַ֣ע הַיָּ֑ם [ובתובנתו] (וּ֝בִתְבוּנָת֗וֹ) מָ֣חַץ רָֽהַב׃ By His power He stirred the sea; by His understanding He shattered Rahab. He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.
13 בְּ֭רוּחוֹ שָׁמַ֣יִם שִׁפְרָ֑ה חֹֽלֲלָ֥ה יָ֝ד֗וֹ נָחָ֥שׁ בָּרִֽיחַ׃ By His breath the skies were cleared; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent. By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 הֶן־ אֵ֤לֶּה ׀ קְצ֬וֹת [דרכו] (דְּרָכָ֗יו) וּמַה־ שֵּׁ֣מֶץ דָּ֭בָר נִשְׁמַע־ בּ֑וֹ וְרַ֥עַם [גבורתו] (גְּ֝בוּרוֹתָ֗יו‪‬) מִ֣י יִתְבּוֹנָֽן׃ ס Indeed, these are but the fringes of His ways; how faint is the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?” 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?
