Job 40
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And LORD JEHOVAH answered and said to Job:

2“Many are the counselors of God, and he who rebukes God gives an answer!”

3And Job answered and said to LORD JEHOVAH:

4“I have come short to myself. What shall I return to you? I have put my hands on my mouth

5Once I have spoken and I shall not give an answer, and I will not continue to speak a second time!”

6And LORD JEHOVAH answered and said to Job from the hurricane:

7“Wrap now your loins as a mighty man. I shall ask you; teach me

8If it is that you nullify me and you condemn me that you will be justified

9Do you have an arm like God, and do you thunder with a voice like his?

10Wear magnificence and heroism and put on brightness and excellence

11And pour out the heat of your wrath and see everything that is exalted and pull it down

12And cast down sinners in their places

13And bury them together in the dust and cover their faces with dust

14Also I shall praise you when your right hand has saved you

15Behold, Behemoth which I have made with you; he eats grass like an ox

16And his strength is in his hindquarters

17He lifts up his tail like a cedar and the sinews of his thighs stand up

18His bones are strong as brass and like iron

19He is the chief of all the creation of God, for he made him that he would make war

20And the abundance of the mountains carry to him, and all the animals of the wilderness

21Under its shade he lies down; in the shelter of the rushes he crouches

22The shadows surround him, and the ravens of the valley surround him

23If the river rises, he is not shaken and trusts that he may pour the Jordan into his mouth

24In his clouds let them take him, and in the net let him be held captive
