(this is a scan from the exact, authentic, original 1611 'HE' King James Bible)

1 But Iob answered and sayd,

2 Howe hast thou helped him that is without power? how sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?

3 How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisedome? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing, as it is?

4 To whom hast thou vttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

5 Dead things are formed from vnder the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

6 Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no couering.

7 He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.

8 Hee bindeth vp the waters in his thicke clouds, and the cloud is not rent vnder them.

9 Hee holdeth backe the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud vpon it.

10 Hee hath compassed the waters with bounds, vntill the day and night come to an end.

11 The pillars of heauen tremble, and are astonished at his reproofe.

12 Hee diuideth the sea with his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth through the proud.

13 By his spirit he hath garnished the heauens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.

14 Loe, these are parts of his waies, but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can vnderstand?

Dennis's Job Chapter 26 comment about verse 7 on 1/15/2013, 3:15am...

Ken,
What about where the author says "... and hangeth the earth upon nothing"?

 


Ken's Job Chapter 26 comment about verse 7 on 11/05/2012, 2:31pm...

What "Scientific Fact or Principle" is, "There is a place void of stars in the North"? If this is being portrayed as a statement that the earth is unsupported then a few short verses later "The pillars of the heavens quake" would seem to belie any advanced knowledge of how gravity and the Cosmos works.

 


Snnopie's Job Chapter 26 comment about verse 5 on 10/07/2012, 7:12pm...

THE GREAT DEEP: When the Deluge overwhelmed the earth, the bodies of the offspring of the fallen angels perished, though their disembodied spirits lived on. When the waters of the flood receded, the place of their abode still remained under the sea and it became the place of their perpetual grave, where their spirits were chained in the darkness of the great deep. Perhaps, too, the fallen angels themselves, because of their sins, were chained in the same location where the spirits of their offspring found a grave, for Peter tells us God did not spare the angels that sinned, but cast them into chains of darkness. (2 Peter 2:4)
