1 The LORD then answered Job and said:

2 Will one who argues with the Almighty be corrected? Let him who would instruct God give answer!

3 Then Job answered the LORD and said:

4 Look, I am of little account; what can I answer you? I put my hand over my mouth.

5 I have spoken once, I will not reply; twice, but I will do so no more.

6 Then the LORD answered Job out of the storm and said:

7 Gird up your loins now, like a man. I will question you, and you tell me the answers!

8 Would you refuse to acknowledge my right? Would you condemn me that you may be justified?

9 Have you an arm like that of God, or can you thunder with a voice like his?
