\p
\v 3 Then Job answered Yahweh and said,
\q
\v 4 "See, I am insignificant; how can I answer you?
\q I put my hand over my mouth.
\q
\v 5 I spoke once, and I will not answer;
\q indeed, twice, but I will proceed no further."

\q
\v 8 Will you actually say that I am unjust?
\q Will you condemn me so you may claim you are right?
\q

\q Can you thunder with a voice like him?

\q
\v 10 Now clothe yourself in glory and dignity;
\q array yourself in honor and majesty.
\q

\q
\v 12 Look at everyone who is proud and bring him low;
\q trample down wicked people where they stand.
\q
\v 13 Bury them in the earth together;
\q imprison their faces in the hidden place.
\q
\v 14 Then will I also acknowledge about you
\q that your own right hand can save you.

\q his power is in his belly's muscles.

\v 17 He makes his tail like a cedar;
\q the sinews of his thighs are joined together.

2017-02-16 15:48:46 +00:00
\v 20 For the hills provide him with food;

\q
2017-02-16 15:48:46 +00:00
