Job 40:6-15 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

6. Then the Lord spoke to Job again from the storm:

7. “Brace yourself and get ready to answer the questions I will ask you.

8. “Are you trying to show that I am unfair? Are you trying to look innocent by saying that I am guilty?

9. Are your arms as strong as mine? Do you have a voice like mine that is as loud as thunder?

10. If so, you can be proud and wear glory and honor like clothes.

11. If you are as powerful as God, then show your anger! Punish those who are proud and humble them.

12. Yes, just look at the proud and make them humble. Crush those evil people where they stand.

13. Bury them all in the dirt. Wrap their bodies up and put them in their graves.

14. If you can do any of these things, then even I will praise you. And I will admit that you can save yourself by your own power.

15. “Look at the behemoth. I made the behemoth, and I made you. He eats grass like a cow.
