Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.

Verse 6 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.

Das Grab ist aufgedeckt vor ihm, und der Abgrund hat keine Decke.
El sepulcro es descubierto delante de él, Y el infierno no tiene cobertura.
El Seol está desnudo ante él y el Abadón no tiene cobertura.
Devant lui le séjour des morts est nu, L'abîme n'a point de voile.
L’inferno è ignudo davanti a lui, E non vi è copritura alcuna al luogo della perdizione.
O inferno está nu perante ele, e não há coberta para a perdição.
在上帝面前,陰間顯露; 冥府 也不得遮掩。
