NET Parallel NLT [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleNew Living Translation
1Then Job replied: 1Then Job spoke again:
2"How you have helped the powerless! How you have saved the person who has no strength! 2“How you have helped the powerless! How you have saved the weak!
3How you have advised the one without wisdom, and abundantly revealed your insight! 3How you have enlightened my stupidity! What wise advice you have offered!
4To whom did you utter these words? And whose spirit has come forth from your mouth? 4Where have you gotten all these wise sayings? Whose spirit speaks through you?
5"The dead tremble--those beneath the waters and all that live in them. 5“The dead tremble— those who live beneath the waters.
6The underworld is naked before God; the place of destruction lies uncovered. 6The underworld is naked in God’s presence. The place of destruction is uncovered.
7He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth on nothing. 7God stretches the northern sky over empty space and hangs the earth on nothing.
8He locks the waters in his clouds, and the clouds do not burst with the weight of them. 8He wraps the rain in his thick clouds, and the clouds don’t burst with the weight.
9He conceals the face of the full moon, shrouding it with his clouds. 9He covers the face of the moon, shrouding it with his clouds.
10He marks out the horizon on the surface of the waters as a boundary between light and darkness. 10He created the horizon when he separated the waters; he set the boundary between day and night.
11The pillars of the heavens tremble and are amazed at his rebuke. 11The foundations of heaven tremble; they shudder at his rebuke.
12By his power he stills the sea; by his wisdom he cut Rahab the great sea monster to pieces. 12By his power the sea grew calm. By his skill he crushed the great sea monster.
13By his breath the skies became fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent. 13His Spirit made the heavens beautiful, and his power pierced the gliding serpent.
14Indeed, these are but the outer fringes of his ways! How faint is the whisper we hear of him! But who can understand the thunder of his power?" 14These are just the beginning of all that he does, merely a whisper of his power. Who, then, can comprehend the thunder of his power?”
