Job 40

  1. Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said, 🔗
  2. Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. 🔗
  3. Then Job answered the LORD, and said, 🔗
  4. Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth. 🔗
  5. Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further. 🔗
  6. Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 🔗
  7. Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. 🔗
  8. Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous? 🔗
  9. Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him? 🔗
  10. Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty. 🔗
  11. Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him. 🔗
  12. Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place. 🔗
  13. Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret. 🔗
  14. Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee. 🔗
  15. Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. 🔗
  16. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. 🔗
  17. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. 🔗
  18. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. 🔗
  19. He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 🔗
  20. Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. 🔗
  21. He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. 🔗
  22. The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. 🔗
  23. Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. 🔗
  24. He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares. 🔗
