Job 40
1 Job humbleth himself to God. 6 God stirreth him up to shew his righteousness, power, and wisdom. 15 Of behemoth.

40:1 ¶
And Yahweh responded to Job, and said:

40:2
Shall a reprover contend, with the Almighty? He that disputeth with GOD, let him answer it!

40:3
Then Job responded to Yahweh, and said:

40:4
Lo! I am of no account, what shall I reply to thee? My hand, have I laid on my mouth:

40:5
Once, have I spoken, but I will not proceed, yea twice, but I will not add.

40:6 ¶
So then Yahweh responded to Job, out of a storm, and said:

40:7
Gird, I pray theeas a strong manthy loins, I will ask thee, and inform thou me.

40:8
Wilt thou even frustrate my justice? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest appear right?

40:9
But if, an arm like GOD, thou hast, and, with a voice like his, thou canst thunder,

40:10
Deck thyself, I pray thee, with majesty and grandeur, Yea, with dignity and splendour, thou shalt clothe thyself;

40:11
Pour out thy transports of anger, and look on every one who is high, and lay him low;

40:12
Look on every one who is high, and humble him, yea tread down the lawless, on the spot:

40:13
Hide them in the dust all together, Their faces, bind thou in darkness;

40:14
And, even I myself, will praise thee, in that thine own right hand can bring thee salvation.

40:15 ¶
Behold, I pray thee, the Hippopotamus, which I made with thee, Grasslike the ox, he eateth;

40:16
Behold, I pray thee, his strength in his loins, and his force, in the muscles of his belly;

40:17
He bendeth down his tail like a cedar, the sinews of his thighs, are twisted together;

40:18
His bones, are barrels of bronze, his frame, is like hammered bars of iron:

40:19
He, is the beginning of the ways of GOD, Let his maker, present him his sword:

40:20
Surely the mountains bring, produce, to him, where, all the wild beasts of the field, do play;

40:21
Under the lotus-trees, he lieth down, in a covert of reed and swamp;

40:22
The lotus-trees cover him with their shade, the willows of the torrent-bed compass him about;

40:23
Lo! the river becometh insolenthe is not alarmed! He is confident, though a Jordan burst forth to his mouth:

40:24
Before his eyes, shall he be caught? With a hook, can one pierce his nose?
