< Job 40 >

1 And he answered Yahweh Job and he said.
MOREOVER the Lord answered Job, and said,
2 ¿ Will he contend with [the] Almighty a faultfinder [one who] corrects God let him answer him.
Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
3 And he answered Job Yahweh and he said.
Then Job answered the Lord, and said,
4 Here! I am insignificant what? will I respond to you hand my I put to mouth my.
Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
5 One [time] I have spoken and not I will answer and two [times] and not I will repeat.
Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
6 And he answered Yahweh Job (from - *QK) (a tempest *Qk) and he said.
Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
7 Gird up please like a man loins your I will ask you and make known to me.
Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8 ¿ Even will you annul justice my will you condemn as guilty? me so that you may be justified.
Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
9 And or? [does] an arm like God - [belong] to you? and with a voice like him will you thunder?
Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
10 Deck yourself please majesty and dignity and glory and honor you will be clothed.
Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.
11 Scatter [the] furi of anger your and see every proud [person] and bring low him.
Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.
12 See every proud [person] humble him and tread down wicked [people] in place their.
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 faces their bind up in the hidden [place].
Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.
14 And also I I will praise you that it will save you right [hand] your.
Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
15 There! please Behemoth which I made with you grass like ox it eats.
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
16 There! please strength its [is] in loins its and power its in [the] muscles of belly its.
Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17 It stiffens tail its like a cedar [the] sinews of (thighs its *QK) they are intertwined.
He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
18 Bones its [are] tubes of bronze limbs its [are] like a rod of iron.
His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
19 It [is] [the] first of [the] ways of God the [one who] made it let him bring near sword his.
He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.
20 For [the] beast[s] of [the] mountains they carry to it and every animal of the field they play there.
Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
21 Under thorny lotus plants it lies in a hiding place of reed[s] and swamp.
He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
22 They cover it thorny lotus plants shade its they surround it [the] poplars of [the] wadi.
The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
23 There! it is violent [the] river not it is alarmed it is confident - for it bursts forth [the] Jordan to mouth its.
Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
24 By eyes its will anyone take? it with snares will anyone pierce? a nose.
He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
