40:4 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay my hand over my mouth.
40:5 Once I have spoken; but I will not answer; even twice, but I will proceed no further.
40:6 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said,
40:7 Gird up thy loins now like a man; I will ask thee, and explain thou unto me.
40:8 Wilt thou disannul my judgment? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou may be justified?
40:9 Hast thou an arm like God? And canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
40:10 Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
40:11 Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath; and behold every one that is proud and bring him down.
40:12 Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
40:13 Hide them in the dust together; and blindfold their faces in darkness.
40:14 Then I will also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
40:15 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eats grass as an ox.
40:16 Behold now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
40:17 He moves his tail like a cedar; the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
40:18 His bones are as strong as brass; his members are like bars of iron.
40:19 He is the beginning of the ways of God; he that made him shall make his sword draw near unto him.
40:20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
40:21 He shall lie down under the shade, in the covert of the reeds and of the damp places.
40:22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
40:23 Behold, he shall drink up a river and not change; he trusts that he can draw up the Jordan into his mouth.
40:24 His maker shall take him by the weakness of his eyes in a snare, and pierce through his nose.
