Job 26:9 in Context — Job 26

7 Il étend le septentrion sur le vide, Il suspend la terre sur le néant.

8 Il renferme les eaux dans ses nuages, Et les nuages n’éclatent pas sous leur poids.

9 Il couvre la face de son trône, Il répand sur lui sa nuée.

10 Il a tracé un cercle à la surface des eaux, Comme limite entre la lumière et les ténèbres.

11 Les colonnes du ciel s’ébranlent, Et s’étonnent à sa menace.
