5. Once I have 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. “Now prepare yourself like a man;I will question you, and you shall answer Me:
8. “Would you indeed annul My judgment?Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?
9. Have you an arm like God?Or can you thunder with a voice like His?
10. Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor,And array yourself with glory and beauty.
11. Disperse the rage of your wrath;Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him.
12. Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low;Tread down the wicked in their place.
13. Hide them in the dust together,Bind their faces in hidden darkness.
14. Then I will also confess to youThat your own right hand can save you.
15. “Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you;He eats grass like an ox.
16. See now, his strength is in his hips,And his power is in his stomach muscles.
17. He moves his tail like a cedar;The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.
