Job 40:1-9 ▼

1 The LORD continued his response to Job by saying:

2 |Should the one who is fighting the Almighty find fault with him? Let God's accuser answer.|

3 Then Job replied to the LORD. He said:

4 |I must look insignificant to you! How can I answer you? I'm speechless.

5 I spoke once, but I can't answer; I tried a second time, but I won't do so anymore.|

6 The LORD answered Job from the wind storm and told him:

7 |Stand up like a man! I'll ask you some questions, and you give me some answers!

8 Indeed would you annul my justice and condemn me, just so you can claim that you're righteous?

9 Do you have strength like God? Can you create thunder with a sound like he can?|
