Job 26:6 in context

Job 26:3–9

3

How have you counseled him who has no wisdom,

and plentifully declared sound knowledge!

4

To whom have you uttered words?

Whose spirit came out of you?

5

“The departed spirits tremble,

those beneath the waters and all that live in them.

6
Selected verse

Sheol is naked before God,

and Abaddon has no covering.

7

He stretches out the north over empty space,

and hangs the earth on nothing.

8

He binds up the waters in his thick clouds,

and the cloud is not burst under them.

9

He encloses the face of his throne,

and spreads his cloud on it.
