Job, 26

1. Then Job answered, and said:

2. Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?

3. To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.

4. Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?

5. Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.

6. Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction.

7. He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.

8. He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.

9. He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.

10. He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.

11. The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.

12. By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.

13. His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding serpent.

14. Lo, these things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?

Versets liés à Job, 26:

In Job chapter 26 he responds to the speech of bility, recognizing God's greatness and wisdom and human insignificance before Him. Job tries to express the greatness and power of God, although he cannot fully understand them. Below are five verses related to the topics covered in Job 26:

Psalm 104:2-3: "He covers the light as a cloak, stretches the heavens as a tent and puts in the water of the heavens the watchman of his high buildings; he makes clouds his carriage and walks over the wings of the wind . " This psalm describes the greatness and power of God, including its creation of heaven and clouds.

Isaiah 40:12: "Who measured the waters in the shell of the hand and, with the hand of hand, measured the sky? Who gathered in a third of the dust of the earth? Who weighed the hills on the scale and the colinnins in the precision scale ? " This verse highlights the greatness and power of God, which created all things.

Psalm 147:5: "Our Lord is great and immensely powerful; His wisdom has no limits." This psalm praises the greatness and power of God, just as Job does in his speech.

Proverbs 9:10: "The fear of the Lord is the principle of wisdom, and the knowledge of the saint is understanding." This verse emphasizes the wisdom and knowledge of God, which Job recognizes in his speech.

Psalm 139:6: "The knowledge you have of me is wonderful, it's too sublime for me, I can't understand it!" This psalm emphasizes God's incomprehensibility, something that Job also recognizes in his speech.





“Pobres e desafortunadas as almas que se envolvem no turbilhão de preocupações deste mundo. Quanto mais amam o mundo, mais suas paixões crescem, mais queimam de desejos, mais se tornam incapazes de atingir seus objetivos. E vêm, então, as inquietações, as impaciências e terríveis sofrimentos profundos, pois seus corações não palpitam com a caridade e o amor. Rezemos por essas almas desafortunadas e miseráveis, para que Jesus, em Sua infinita misericórdia, possa perdoá-las e conduzi-las a Ele.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
