Job 40

Verses of Job 40 of the ASV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Moreover Jehovah answered Job, and said,
2 - Shall he that cavilleth contend with the Almighty? He that argueth with God, let him answer it.
3 - Then Job answered Jehovah, and said,
4 - Behold, I am of small account; What shall I answer thee? I lay my hand upon my mouth.
5 - Once have I spoken, and I will not answer; Yea, twice, but I will proceed no further.
6 - Then Jehovah answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
7 - Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8 - Wilt thou even annul my judgment? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified?
9 - Or hast thou an arm like God? And canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
10 - Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; And array thyself with honor and majesty.
11 - Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger; And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.
12 - Look on every one that is proud, `and' bring him low; And tread down the wicked where they stand.
13 - Hide them in the dust together; Bind their faces in the hidden `place'.
14 - Then will I also confess of thee That thine own right hand can save thee.
15 - Behold now, behemoth, which I made as well as thee; He eateth grass as an ox.
16 - Lo now, his strength is in his loins, And his force is in the muscles of his belly.
17 - He moveth his tail like a cedar: The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
18 - His bones are `as' tubes of brass; His limbs are like bars of iron.
19 - He is the chief of the ways of God: He `only' that made him giveth him his sword.
20 - Surely the mountains bring him forth food, Where all the beasts of the field do play.
21 - He lieth under the lotus-trees, In the covert of the reed, and the fen.
22 - The lotus-trees cover him with their shade; The willows of the brook compass him about.
23 - Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; He is confident, though a Jordan swell even to his mouth.
24 - Shall any take him when he is on the watch, Or pierce through his nose with a snare?
