| 1 And Jehovah answered Job and said, |
|
|
| 2 Shall he that will contend with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth +God, let him answer it. |
|
|
| 3 And Job answered Jehovah and said, |
|
|
| 4 Behold, I am nought: what shall I answer thee? I will lay my hand upon my mouth. |
|
|
| 5 Once have I spoken, and I will not answer; yea twice, but I will proceed no further. |
|
|
| 6 And Jehovah answered Job out of the whirlwind and said, |
|
|
| 7 Gird up now thy loins like a man: I will demand of thee, and inform thou me. |
|
|
| 8 Wilt thou also annul 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 glory and excellency, and clothe thyself with majesty and splendour. |
|
|
| 11 Cast abroad the ragings of thine anger, and look on every one that is proud, and abase him: |
|
|
| 12 Look on every one that is proud, bring him low, and tread down the wicked in their place: |
|
|
| 13 Hide them in the dust together; bind their faces in secret. |
|
|
| 14 Then will I also praise thee, because thy right hand saveth thee.
|

| 15 See now the behemoth, which I made with thee: he eateth grass as an ox. |
|
|
| 16 Behold now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the muscles of his belly. |
|
|
| 17 He bendeth his tail like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are woven together. |
|
|
| 18 His bones are tubes of bronze, his members are like bars of iron. |
|
|
| 19 He is the chief of *God's ways: he that made him gave him his sword. |
|
|
| 20 For the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. |
|
|
| 21 He lieth under lotus-bushes, in the covert of the reed and fen: |
|
|
| 22 Lotus-bushes cover him with their shade; the willows of the brook surround him. |
|
|
| 23 Lo, the river overfloweth--he startleth not: he is confident though a Jordan break forth against his mouth. |
|
|
| 24 Shall he be taken in front? will they pierce through his nose in the trap? |
