MOREOVER the LORD answered Job, and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014361">2</a>. Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him?  he that reproveth God, let him answer it.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014362">3</a>. Then Job answered the LORD, and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014363">4</a>. Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee?  I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014364">5</a>. Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014365">6</a>. Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014366">7</a>. Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014367">8</a>. Wilt thou also disannul my judgment?  wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014368">9</a>. Hast thou an arm like God?  or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014369">10</a>. Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014370">11</a>. Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014371">12</a>. Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014372">13</a>. Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014373">14</a>. Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014374">15</a>. Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014375">16</a>. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014376">17</a>. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014377">18</a>. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014378">19</a>. He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014379">20</a>. Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014380">21</a>. He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014381">22</a>. The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014382">23</a>. Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014383">24</a>. He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.</li>
