40:1 And the LORD said to Job:

40:2 "Shall a faultfinder contend with the Almighty? He who argues with God, let him answer it."

40:3 Then Job answered the LORD:

40:4 "Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer thee? I lay my hand on my mouth.

40:5 I have spoken once, and I will not answer; twice, but I will proceed no further."

40:6 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:

40:7 "Gird up your loins like a man; I will question you, and you declare to me.

40:8 Will you even put me in the wrong? Will you condemn me that you may be justified?

40:9 Have you an arm like God, and can you thunder with a voice like his?

40:10 "Deck yourself with majesty and dignity; clothe yourself with glory and splendor.

40:11 Pour forth the overflowings of your anger, and look on every one that is proud, and abase him.

40:12 Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked where they stand.

40:13 Hide them all in the dust together; bind their faces in the world below.

40:14 Then will I also acknowledge to you, that your own right hand can give you victory.

40:15 "Behold, Be'hemoth, which I made as I made you; he eats grass like an ox.

40:16 Behold, his strength in his loins, and his power in the muscles of his belly.

40:17 He makes his tail stiff like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are knit together.

40:18 His bones are tubes of bronze, his limbs like bars of iron.

40:19 "He is the first of the works of God; let him who made him bring near his sword!

40:20 For the mountains yield food for him where all the wild beasts play.

40:21 Under the lotus plants he lies, in the covert of the reeds and in the marsh.

40:22 For his shade the lotus trees cover him; the willows of the brook surround him.

40:23 Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened; he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth.

40:24 Can one take him with hooks, or pierce his nose with a snare?
