Job 40
1
Moreover the LORD answered Job,
2
“Shall he who argues contend with the Almighty?
3
Then Job answered the LORD,
4
“Behold, I am of small account. What will I answer you?
5
I have spoken once, and I will not answer;
6
Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:
7
“Now brace yourself like a man.
8
Will you even annul my judgment?
9
Or do you have an arm like God?
10
“Now deck yourself with excellency and dignity.
11
Pour out the fury of your anger.
12
Look at everyone who is proud, and humble him.
13
Hide them in the dust together.
14
Then I will also admit to you
15
“See now behemoth, which I made as well as you.
16
Look now, his strength is in his thighs.
17
He moves his tail like a cedar.
18
His bones are like tubes of bronze.
19
He is the chief of the ways of God.
20
Surely the mountains produce food for him,
21
He lies under the lotus trees,
22
The lotuses cover him with their shade.
23
Behold, if a river overflows, he doesn’t tremble.
24
Shall any take him when he is on the watch,
