⁸ who alone stretched out the heavens
   and trampled the waves of the Sea;^*
9 who made the Bear and Orion,
   the Pleiades and the chambers of the south;
¹⁰ who does great things beyond understanding,
   and marvellous things without number.
¹¹ Look, he passes by me, and I do not see him;
   he moves on, but I do not perceive him.
¹² He snatches away; who can stop him?
   Who will say to him, “What are you doing?”

¹³ ‘God will not turn back his anger;
   the helpers of Rahab bowed beneath him.
¹⁴ How then can I answer him,
   choosing my words with him?
¹⁵ Though I am innocent, I cannot answer him;
   I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.^*
16 If I summoned him and he answered me,
   I do not believe that he would listen to my voice.
¹⁷ For he crushes me with a tempest,
   and multiplies my wounds without cause;
¹⁸ he will not let me get my breath,
   but fills me with bitterness.
