Job 40

1And Jehovah answered JobH347 and saidH559, 2Shall he that will contendH7378 with the AlmightyH7706 instruct [him]? he that reproveth 1GodH433, let him answerH6030 it. 3And JobH347 answered Jehovah and saidH559, 4Behold, I am nought: what shall I answer thee? I will lay my handH3027 upon my mouthH6310. 5Once have I spokenH1696, and I will not answerH6030; yea twice, but I will proceed no further. 6And Jehovah answered JobH347 out of the whirlwind and saidH559, 7GirdH247 up now thy loinsH2504 like a manH1397: I will demand of thee, and inform thou me. 8Wilt thou alsoH637 annulH6565 my judgmentH4941? wilt thou condemnH7561 me that thou mayest be righteousH6663? 9Hast thou an armH2220 like 2GodH410? or canst thou thunderH6963 with a voiceH6963 like him? 10Deck thyself now with glory and excellency, and clotheH3847 thyself with majestyH1926 and splendour. 11Cast abroad the ragings of thine angerH639, and lookH7200 on every one that is proudH1343, and abase him: 12LookH7200 on every one that is proudH1343, bring him low, and tread down the wickedH7563 in their placeH8478: 13HideH2934 them in the dustH6083 togetherH3162; bindH2280 their facesH6440 in secret. 14Then will I alsoH1571 praiseH3034 thee, because thy rightH3225 handH3225 saveth thee. 15See now the behemoth, which I madeH6213 with thee: he eateth grassH2682 as an oxH1241. 16Behold now, his strengthH3581 is in his loinsH4975, and his force is in the muscles of his bellyH990. 17He bendeth his tailH2180 like a cedarH730; the sinewsH1517 of his thighs are woven together. 18His bonesH6106 are tubes of bronzeH5154, his members are like bars of ironH1270. 19He is the chief of 3God's waysH1870: he that madeH6213 him gave him his swordH2719. 20For the mountainsH2022 bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the fieldH7704 playH7832. 21He lieth under lotus-bushes, in the covert of the reedH7070 and fen: 22Lotus-bushes cover him with their shade; the willows of the brook surroundH5437 him. 23Lo, the riverH5104 overfloweth — he startleth not: he is confidentH982 though a JordanH3383 break forthH1518 against his mouthH6310. 24Shall he be takenH3947 in front? will they pierce through [his] noseH639 in the trap?
