He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud.

Verse 12 is found in chapter 26 of Job. Job responds ironically and then offers a majestic description of God’s creative power. He speaks of the realms of the dead, clouds, horizon, and forces of the sea. The passage ends by acknowledging that all this represents only a portion of God’s works. God’s greatness is affirmed without being used to silence the mystery.

Von seiner Kraft wird das Meer plötzlich ungestüm, und durch seinen Verstand zerschmettert er Rahab.
Él rompe la mar con su poder, Y con su entendimiento hiere la hinchazón suya.
Con su poder agita el mar y con su entendimiento aplasta a Rahab.
Par sa force il soulève la mer, Par son intelligence il en brise l'orgueil.
Egli ha fesso il mare con la sua forza, E col suo senno ha trafitto Rahab.
Com a sua força fende o mar, e com o seu entendimento abate a soberba.
他以能力攪動 大海 , 藉知識打傷 拉哈伯 。
