Job 40:1-9 ▼

1 Then the LORD said to Job,

2 “Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty? Let him who reproves God answer it.”

3 Then Job answered the LORD and said,

4 “Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You? I lay my hand on my mouth.

5 “Once I have spoken, and I will not answer; Even twice, and I will add nothing more.”

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

7 “Now gird up your loins like a man; I will ask you, and you instruct Me.

8 “Will you really annul My judgment? Will you condemn Me that you may be justified?

9 “Or do you have an arm like God, And can you thunder with a voice like His?
