A   Iob answered, and sayde: Whom hast thou helped? Him that is &wt;out strength? what comforte geuest thou vnto hym that hath no strength? Where is the councell þt; thou shuldest geue him, which hath no wysdome? Hast thou shewed the waye of ryght lyuinge. B   To whom hast thou spoken those wordes? Who made the breth to come out of thy mouth? &rhand; Are not deed thinges shapen vnder the waters: ∧ thinges by the waters syde? Hell is naked before him, and the very destruccion it selfe cannot be hyd out of his syght. C   He stretcheth out the north ouer the emptie, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing. He byndeth the ^note waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder th&ebar;. He holdeth back his stole, that it cannot be sene, and spredeth his cloude before it.

^noteHe hath compased the waters with certayne boundes vntill the daye ∧ nyght come to an ende. The very pyllers of heau&ebar; tremble and quake at his reprofe. ^note D   He stilleth þe; se with his power, &abar;d thorow his wysdome smyteth he the strength therof. Hys sprete hath garnisshed the heauens, and hys hande hath made the rebellious serpent. Lo, this is nowe a shorte s&ubar;me of his wayes. But who is able sufficiently to rehearse hys workes? Who can perceaue and vnderstande the th&obar;dre of hys power?
