Job - ch 40 v 1 - 20
- Moreover Jehovah answered Job, and said,
- Shall he that cavilleth contend with the Almighty? He that argueth with God, let him answer it.
- Then Job answered Jehovah, and said,
- Behold, I am of small account; What shall I answer thee? I lay my hand upon my mouth.
- Once have I spoken, and I will not answer; Yea, twice, but I will proceed no further.
- Then Jehovah answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
- Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
- Wilt thou even annul my judgment? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified?
- Or 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 honor and majesty.
- Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger; And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.
- Look on every one that is proud, `and' bring him low; And tread down the wicked where they stand.
- Hide them in the dust together; Bind their faces in the hidden `place'.
- Then will I also confess of thee That thine own right hand can save thee.
- Behold now, behemoth, which I made as well as thee; He eateth grass as an ox.
- Lo now, his strength is in his loins, And his force is in the muscles of his belly.
- He moveth his tail like a cedar: The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
- His bones are `as' tubes of brass; His limbs are like bars of iron.
- He is the chief of the ways of God: He `only' that made him giveth him his sword.
- Surely the mountains bring him forth food, Where all the beasts of the field do play.
