Job, Chapter 40

1 Then the LORD said to Job,
 2 “Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty?
Let him who reproves God answer it.”
3 Then Job answered the LORD and said,
 4 “Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You?
I lay my hand on my mouth.
 5 “Once I have spoken, and I will not answer;
Even twice, and I will add nothing more.”
6 Then the LORD answered Job out of the storm and said,
 7 “Now gird up your loins like a man;
I will ask you, and you instruct Me.
 8 “Will you really annul My judgment?
Will you condemn Me that you may be justified?
 9 “Or do you have an arm like God,
And can you thunder with a voice like His?
 10 “Adorn yourself with eminence and dignity,
And clothe yourself with honor and majesty.
 11 “Pour out the overflowings of your anger,
And look on everyone who is proud, and make him low.
 12 “Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him,
And tread down the wickeda Lit under themwhere they stand.
 13 “Hide them in the dust together;
Bindb Or their facesthem in the hidden place.
 14 “Then I will alsoc Or praise youconfess to you,
That your own right hand can save you.
 15 “Behold now,d Or the hippopotamusBehemoth, which I madee Lit withas well as you;
He eats grass like an ox.
 16 “Behold now, his strength in his loins
And his power in the muscles of his belly.
 17 “He bends his tail like a cedar;
The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
 18 “His bones are tubes of bronze;
Hisf Lit boneslimbs are like bars of iron.
 19 “He is the first of the ways of God;
Let his maker bring near his sword.
 20 “Surely the mountains bring him food,
And all the beasts of the field play there.
 21 “Under the lotus plants he lies down,
In the covert of the reeds and the marsh.
 22 “The lotus plants cover him withg Lit his shadeshade;
The willows of the brook surround him.
 23 “If a riverh Or oppressesrages, he is not alarmed;
He is confident, though the Jordan rushes to his mouth.
 24 “Can anyone capture himi Lit in his eyeswhen he is on watch,
Withj Lit snaresbarbs can anyone pierce his nose?
