Job 26:5

The dead tremble—those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them.

Job 26:5 · BSB

Job 26:5 in context

The verses around it, from Job 26.

1 Then Job answered:

2 “How you have helped the powerless and saved the arm that is feeble!

3 How you have counseled the unwise and provided fully sound insight!

4 To whom have you uttered these words? And whose spirit spoke through you?

5 The dead tremble—those beneath the waters and those who dwell in them.

6 Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

7 He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth upon nothing.

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.
