2. 2"How you have helped him who is without power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
3. 3How you have counseled him who has no wisdom! And how plentifully you have declared the thing as it is!
4. 4To whom have you uttered words? And whose spirit came from you?
5. 5Dead things are formed beneath the waters, along with their inhabitants.
6. 6Hell is naked before him, and destruction has no covering.
7. 7He stretches out the north over the empty place and hangs the earth upon nothing.
8. 8He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not torn under them.
9. 9He holds back the face of his throne and spreads his cloud upon it.
10. 10He has encircled the waters with boundaries, until the day and night come to an end.
11. 11The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.
12. 12He divides the sea with his power, and by his understanding he strikes through the proud.
13. 13By his spirit he has adorned the heavens; his hand has formed the crooked serpent.
14. 14Look, these are parts of his ways, but how little a portion is heard of him! But the thunder of his power, who can understand?"
