Job 26:12 in context

The verses around it, from Job 26.

8 He wraps up the waters in His clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their own weight.

9 He covers the face of the full moon, spreading over it His cloud.

10 He has inscribed a horizon on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness.

11 The foundations of heaven quake, astounded at His rebuke.

12 By His power He stirred the sea; by His understanding He shattered Rahab.

13 By His breath the skies were cleared; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.

14 Indeed, these are but the fringes of His ways; how faint is the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?”
