Berean Standard Bible
And Jehovah
doth
answer
Job ,
and
saith
: --
And the
LORD
said
to
Job:
Is
the striver
with the Mighty
instructed
? The
reprover
of
God,
let him answer it
.
“Will
the faultfinder
contend
with the Almighty
? Let him who
argues
with
God
give
an
answer. ”
And
Job answereth
Jehovah,
and
saith
: --
Then
Job answered
the
LORD
:
Lo
, I have
been
vile,
What
do
I return
to Thee
? My hand I
have
placed
on
my mouth.
“Behold
, I am
insignificant.
How
can
I reply
to You
? I
place
my hand over
my mouth.
Once
I have spoken, and
I answer not,
And
twice, and
I add not
.
I have spoken once
, but
I have
no
answer —
twice, but
I have
nothing
to
add. ”
And
Jehovah
answereth
Job out of the whirlwind ,
and saith
: --
Then
the
LORD
answered
Job out of the whirlwind and said
:
Gird,
I
pray
thee,
as
a man ,
thy
loins,
I ask
thee
, and cause
thou
Me to
know
.
“Now
brace
yourself
like
a man ;
I will
question
you
, and you
shall
inform
Me.
Dost
thou
also
make
void
My judgment
? Dost
thou
condemn Me ,
That
thou
mayest
be
righteous
?
Would
you
really
annul
My justice
? Would
you
condemn Me to
justify
yourself
?
And
an arm like God
hast
thou
? And
with a voice like Him
dost
thou
thunder
?
Do
you
have
an arm like God’s
? Can
you
thunder
with a voice like His
?
Put
on,
I
pray
thee,
excellency
and loftiness,
Yea
, honour
and beauty
put
on
.
Then
adorn
yourself
with
majesty
and splendor
, and clothe
yourself
with
honor
and
glory
.
Scatter
abroad
the wrath
of thine
anger,
And
see
every proud one,
and make
him low.
Unleash
the fury
of your
wrath;
look
on
every proud man
and bring
him low.
See
every proud one
--
humble him ,
And
tread
down
the wicked in
their
place
.
Look
on
every proud man
and
humble him ;
trample
the wicked where
they
stand
.
Hide
them in the dust together,
Their
faces
bind
in secret
.
Bury
them together
in the dust ;
imprison
them
in the
grave
.
And
even
I
--
I do
praise
thee,
For
thy
right hand giveth
salvation
to
thee
.
Then
I will
confess
to
you
that
your
own
right hand can
save
you
.
Lo,
I
pray
thee,
Behemoth, that
I made with thee:
Grass as
an ox he
eateth
.
Look
at
Behemoth, which
I made along
with you.
He
feeds
on
grass like
an ox.
Lo,
I
pray
thee,
his
power
`is'
in
his loins ,
And his
strength
in the muscles of his belly.
See
the
strength
of
his loins and the
power
in the muscles of his belly.
He
doth
bend
his tail as
a cedar ,
The sinews of his thighs are wrapped
together,
His tail sways
like
a cedar ;
the sinews of his thighs are tightly
knit.
His bones `
are '
tubes of brass,
His bones
`
are '
as
a
bar
of iron.
His bones are tubes of bronze;
his limbs
are rods
of iron.
He `
is '
a
beginning
of
the ways
of God,
His Maker bringeth
nigh
his
sword ;
He is the foremost
of God’s
works;
only
his Maker can
draw
the
sword against
him.
For
food
do
mountains
bear
for
him, And
all the beasts of the field play there
.
The
hills
yield
him their
produce
, while
all the beasts of the field play nearby
.
Under
shades
he lieth
down
, In
a
secret
place
of reed
and
mire
.
He lies
under
the
lotus
plants
, hidden
among
the
reeds
of the
marsh
.
Cover
him do
shades,
`with'
their shadow,
Cover
him
do
willows of the brook.
The
lotus
plants
conceal
him in
their shade;
the
willows of the brook surround
him
.
Lo
, a
flood
oppresseth
--
he doth
not
haste
, He
is
confident
though Jordan Doth
come
forth
unto
his mouth.
Though
the
river
rages
, Behemoth
is
unafraid;
he remains
secure
, though the
Jordan surges
to
his mouth.
Before
his
eyes
doth
`one'
take
him, With
snares
doth
`one'
pierce the
nose?
Can
anyone
capture
him as
he
looks
on
, or
pierce his
nose with
a
snare
?
