Context of Job 40:10

8Wilt thou even disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified? 9Or hast thou an arm like God? and canst thou thunder with a voice like him? Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; and array thyself with honour and majesty. 11Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger: and look upon every one that is proud, and abase him. 12Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked where they stand.
