Daily Bible GNT September 11 Verses

Job 26 ^1-2What a big help you are to me--

poor, weak man that I am!

³You give such good advice

and share your knowledge with a fool like me!

⁴Who do you think will hear all your words?

Who inspired you to speak like this?

[Bildad]

⁵The spirits of the dead tremble

in the waters under the earth.

⁶The world of the dead lies open to God;

no covering shields it from his sight.

⁷God stretched out the northern sky

and hung the earth in empty space.

⁸It is God who fills the clouds with water

and keeps them from bursting with the weight.

⁹He hides the full moon behind a cloud.

¹⁰He divided light from darkness

by a circle drawn on the face of the sea.

¹¹When he threatens the pillars that hold up the sky,

they shake and tremble with fear.

¹²It is his strength that conquered the sea;

by his skill he destroyed the monster Rahab.

¹³It is his breath that made the sky clear,

and his hand that killed the escaping monster.

¹⁴But these are only hints of his power,

only the whispers that we have heard.

Who can know how truly great God is?

Job
