Job 26:3

Wisdom

1 But Job answered and said,

2 How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength?

How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
