40:4 “Behold, I am vile. What shall I answer Thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
40:5 Once have I spoken, but I will not answer; yea, twice, but I will proceed no further.”
40:6 Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind and said:
40:7 “Gird up thy loins now like a man; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto Me.
40:8 Wilt thou also disannul My judgment? Wilt thou condemn Me, that thou mayest be righteous?
40:9 Hast thou an arm like God? Or 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 abase him.
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 bind their faces in secret.
40:14 Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
40:15 “Behold now Behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
40:16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
40:17 He moveth his tail like a cedar; the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
40:18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
40:19 He is the chief of the ways of God; He that made him can make His sword to approach unto him.
40:20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
40:21 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed and fens.
40:22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
40:23 Behold, he drinketh up a river and hasteneth not; he trusteth that he can draw up the Jordan into his mouth.
40:24 Will any take him with his sight, or bore his nose with a snare?
