Chapter 40

¹ And the Lord answering Job out of the whirlwind, said :
² Gird up thy loins like a man : I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.
³ Wilt thou make void my judgment : and condemn me, that thou mayst be justified?
⁴ And hast thou an arm like God, and canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
⁵ Clothe thyself with beauty, and set thyself up on high and be glorious, and put on goodly garments.
⁶ Scatter the proud in thy indignation, and behold every arrogant man, and humble him.
⁷ Look on all that are proud, and confound them, and crush the wicked in their place.
⁸ Hide them in the dust together, and plunge their faces into the pit.
⁹ Then I will confess that thy right hand is able to save thee.
¹⁰ Behold behemoth whom I made with thee, he eateth grass like an ox.
¹¹ His strength is in his loins, and his force in the navel of his belly.
¹² He setteth up his tail like a cedar, the sinews of his testicles are wrapped together.
¹³ His bones are like pipes of brass, his gristle like plates of iron.
¹⁴ He is the beginning of the ways of God, who made him, he will apply his sword.
¹⁵ To him the mountains bring forth grass : there all the beasts of the field shall play.
¹⁶ He sleepeth under the shadow, in the covert of the reed, and in moist places.
¹⁷ The shades cover his shadow, the willows of the brook shall compass him about.
¹⁸ Behold, he will drink up a river, and not wonder : and he trusteth that the Jordan may run into his mouth.
¹⁹ In his eyes as with a hook he shall take him, and bore through his nostrils with stakes.
²⁰ Canst thou draw out the leviathan with a hook, or canst thou tie his tongue with a cord?
²¹ Canst thou put a ring in his nose, or bore through his jaw with a buckle?
²² Will he make many supplications to thee, or speak soft words to thee?
²³ Will he make a covenant with thee, and wilt thou take him to be a servant for ever?
²⁴ Shalt thou play with him as with a bird, or tie him up for thy handmaids?
²⁵ Shall friends cut him in pieces, shall merchants divide him?
²⁶ Wilt thou fill nets with his skin, and the cabins of fishes with his head?
²⁷ Lay thy hand upon him : remember the battle, and speak no more.
²⁸ Behold his hope shall fail him, and in the sight of all he shall be cast down.

Chapter 40

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 my hand upon my mouth.
⁵ Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yes, twice; but I will proceed no further.
⁶ Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
⁷ Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou to 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 his?
¹⁰ Deck thyself now with majesty and excellence; 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; bind their faces in secret.
¹⁴ Then will I also confess to thee that thy own right hand can save thee.
¹⁵ Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
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 male organs are wrapped together.
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 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 encompass him.
²³ Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
²⁴ He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

Chapter 40

¹ ...
² Will he who is protesting give teaching to the Ruler of all? Let him who has arguments to put forward against God give an answer.
³ And Job said in answer to the Lord,
⁴ Truly, I am of no value; what answer may I give to you? I will put my hand on my mouth.
⁵ I have said once, and even twice, what was in my mind, but I will not do so again.
⁶ Then the Lord made answer to Job out of the storm-wind, and said,
⁷ Get your strength together like a man of war: I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.
⁸ Will you even make my right of no value? will you say that I am wrong in order to make clear that you are right?
⁹ Have you an arm like God? have you a voice of thunder like his?
¹⁰ Put on the ornaments of your pride; be clothed with glory and power:
¹¹ Let your wrath be overflowing; let your eyes see all the sons of pride, and make them low.
¹² Send destruction on all who are lifted up, pulling down the sinners from their places.
¹³ Let them be covered together in the dust; let their faces be dark in the secret place of the underworld.
¹⁴ Then I will give praise to you, saying that your right hand is able to give you salvation.
¹⁵ See now the Great Beast, whom I made, even as I made you; he takes grass for food, like the ox.
¹⁶ His strength is in his body, and his force in the muscles of his stomach.
¹⁷ His tail is curving like a cedar; the muscles of his legs are joined together.
¹⁸ His bones are pipes of brass, his legs are like rods of iron.
¹⁹ He is the chief of the ways of God, made by him for his pleasure.
²⁰ He takes the produce of the mountains, where all the beasts of the field are at play.
²¹ He takes his rest under the trees of the river, and in the pool, under the shade of the water-plants.
²² He is covered by the branches of the trees; the grasses of the stream are round him.
²³ Truly, if the river is overflowing, it gives him no cause for fear; he has no sense of danger, even if Jordan is rushing against his mouth.
²⁴ Will anyone take him when he is on the watch, or put metal teeth through his nose?
