1 Moreover the LORD answered Job , and said , 2 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God , let him answer it. 3 Then Job answered the LORD , and said , 4 Behold, I am vile ; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth . 5 Once have I spoken ; but I will not answer : yea, twice ; but I will proceed no further .
6 Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind , and said , 7 Gird up thy loins now like a man : I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. 8 Wilt thou also disannul 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 majesty and excellency ; and array thyself with glory and beauty . 11 Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath : and behold every one that is proud , and abase him. 12 Look on every one that is proud , and bring him low ; and tread down the wicked in their place. 13 Hide them in the dust together ; and bind their faces in secret . 14 Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
15 Behold now behemoth , which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox .1 16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins , and his force is in the navel of his belly . 17 He moveth his tail like a cedar : the sinews of his stones are wrapped together .2 18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass ; his bones are like bars of iron . 19 He is the chief of the ways of God : he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food , where all the beasts of the field play . 21 He lieth under the shady trees , in the covert of the reed , and fens . 22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow ; the willows of the brook compass him about . 23 Behold, he drinketh up a river , and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth .3 24 He taketh it with his eyes : his nose pierceth through snares .4
