The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 Then Job answered and said:
1
respondens autem Iob dixit
2 “How you have helped him who has no power! How you have saved the arm that has no strength!
2
cuius adiutor es numquid inbecilli et sustentas brachium eius qui non est fortis
3 How you have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
3
cui dedisti consilium forsitan illi qui non habet sapientiam et prudentiam tuam ostendisti plurimam
4 With whose help have you uttered words, and whose breath has come out from you?
4
quem docere voluisti nonne eum qui fecit spiramen tuum
5 The dead tremble under the waters and their inhabitants.
5
ecce gigantes gemunt sub aquis et qui habitant cum eis
6 Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.
6
nudus est inferus coram illo et nullum est operimentum perditioni
7 He stretches out the north over the void and hangs the earth on nothing.
7
qui extendit aquilonem super vacuum et adpendit terram super nihili
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not split open under them.
8
qui ligat aquas in nubibus suis ut non erumpant pariter deorsum
9 He covers the face of the full moon and spreads over it his cloud.
9
qui tenet vultum solii sui et expandit super illud nebulam suam
10 He has inscribed a circle on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.
10
terminum circumdedit aquis usque dum finiantur lux et tenebrae
11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astounded at his rebuke.
11
columnae caeli contremescunt et pavent ad nutum eius
12 By his power he stilled the sea; by his understanding he shattered Rahab.
12
in fortitudine illius repente maria congregata sunt et prudentia eius percussit superbum
13 By his wind the heavens were made fair; his hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
13
spiritus eius ornavit caelos et obsetricante manu eius eductus est coluber tortuosus
14 Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways, and how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand? ”
14
ecce haec ex parte dicta sunt viarum eius et cum vix parvam stillam sermonis eius audierimus quis poterit tonitruum magnitudinis illius intueri
