Job 40

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

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said:
2 - "Shall the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him? He who rebukes God, let him answer it."
3 - Then Job answered the LORD and said:
4 - "Behold, I am vile; What shall I answer You? I lay my hand over my mouth.
5 - Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further."
6 - Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:
7 - "Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me:
8 - "Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?
9 - Have you an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like His?
10 - Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, And array yourself with glory and beauty.
11 - Disperse the rage of your wrath; Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him.
12 - Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low; Tread down the wicked in their place.
13 - Hide them in the dust together, Bind their faces in hidden darkness.
14 - Then I will also confess to you That your own right hand can save you.
15 - "Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you; He eats grass like an ox.
16 - See now, his strength is in his hips, And his power is in his stomach muscles.
17 - He moves his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.
18 - His bones are like beams of bronze, His ribs like bars of iron.
19 - He is the first of the ways of God; Only He who made him can bring near His sword.
20 - Surely the mountains yield food for him, And all the beasts of the field play there.
21 - He lies under the lotus trees, In a covert of reeds and marsh.
22 - The lotus trees cover him with their shade; The willows by the brook surround him.
23 - Indeed the river may rage, Yet he is not disturbed; He is confident, though the Jordan gushes into his mouth,
24 - Though he takes it in his eyes, Or one pierces his nose with a snare.
