² How well you have helped the weak,
        saved those with frail arms,
³     advised one lacking wisdom,
        informed many with insight!
⁴ With whom have you spoken;
    whose breath was expelled from you?

⁵ The dead writhe,
    the inhabitants beneath the waters as well.
⁶ The grave is naked before God;
    the underworld lacks covering.
⁷ He stretched the North over chaos,
    hung earth over nothing;
⁸     wrapped up water in his clouds,
        yet they didn’t burst out below;
⁹     hid the face of the full moon,
        spreading his cloud over it;
¹⁰     traced a circle on the water’s surface,
        at the limit of light and darkness.
¹¹ Heaven’s pillars shook,
    terrified by his blast.
¹² By his power he stilled the Sea;
    split Rahab with his cleverness.
¹³ Due to his wind, heaven became clear;
    his hand split the fleeing serpent.
¹⁴ Look, these are only the outer fringe of his ways;
    we hear only a whispered word about him.
    Who can understand his thunderous power?
