1 Then Job answered and said,

1 וַיַּ֥עַן אִיֹּ֗וב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃

2 How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!

2 מֶה־עָזַ֥רְתָּ לְלֹא־כֹ֑חַ הֹ֝ושַׁ֗עְתָּ זְרֹ֣ועַ לֹא־עֹֽז׃

3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge!

3 מַה־יָּ֭עַצְתָּ לְלֹ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝תוּשִׁיָּ֗ה לָרֹ֥ב הֹודָֽעְתָּ׃

4 To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?

4 אֶת־מִ֭י הִגַּ֣דְתָּ מִלִּ֑ין וְנִשְׁמַת־מִ֝י יָצְאָ֥ה מִמֶּֽךָּ׃

5 They that are deceased tremble Beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.

5 הָרְפָאִ֥ים יְחֹולָ֑לוּ מִתַּ֥חַת מַ֝֗יִם וְשֹׁכְנֵיהֶֽם׃

6 Sheol is naked before `God', And Abaddon hath no covering.

6 עָרֹ֣ום שְׁאֹ֣ול נֶגְדֹּ֑ו וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדֹּֽון׃

7 He stretcheth out the north over empty space, And hangeth the earth upon nothing.

7 נֹטֶ֣ה צָפֹ֣ון עַל־תֹּ֑הוּ תֹּ֥לֶה אֶ֝֗רֶץ עַל־בְּלִי־מָֽה׃

8 He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; And the cloud is not rent under them.

8 צֹרֵֽר־מַ֥יִם בְּעָבָ֑יו וְלֹא־נִבְקַ֖ע עָנָ֣ן תַּחְתָּֽם׃

9 He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it.

9 מְאַחֵ֥ז פְּנֵי־כִסֵּ֑ה פַּרְשֵׁ֖ז עָלָ֣יו עֲנָנֹֽו׃

10 He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, Unto the confines of light and darkness.

10 חֹֽק־חָ֭ג עַל־פְּנֵי־מָ֑יִם עַד־תַּכְלִ֖ית אֹ֣ור עִם־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃

11 The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke.

11 עַמּוּדֵ֣י שָׁמַ֣יִם יְרֹופָ֑פוּ וְ֝יִתְמְה֗וּ מִגַּעֲרָתֹֽו׃

12 He stirreth up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.

12 בְּ֭כֹחֹו רָגַ֣ע הַיָּ֑ם וּבִתוּבְנָתֹו וּ֝בִתְבוּנָתֹ֗ו מָ֣חַץ רָֽהַב׃

13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished; His hand hath pierced the swift serpent.

13 בְּ֭רוּחֹו שָׁמַ֣יִם שִׁפְרָ֑ה חֹֽלֲלָ֥ה3 יָ֝דֹ֗ו נָחָ֥שׁ בָּרִֽיחַ׃

14 Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways: And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?

14 הֶן־אֵ֤לֶּה׀ קְצֹ֬ות דַּרְכֹּו דְּרָכָ֗יו וּמַה־שֵּׁ֣מֶץ דָּ֭בָר נִשְׁמַע־בֹּ֑ו וְרַ֥עַם גְּבוּרָתֹו גְּ֝בוּרֹותָ֗יו3 מִ֣י יִתְבֹּונָֽן׃
