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