¹ And the LORD said to Job:² "Shall a faultfinder contend with the Almighty? He who argues with God, let him answer it."³ Then Job answered the LORD:⁴ "Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer thee? I lay my hand on my mouth.⁵ I have spoken once, and I will not answer; twice, but I will proceed no further."

⁶ Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:⁷ "Gird up your loins like a man; I will question you, and you declare to me.⁸ Will you even put me in the wrong? Will you condemn me that you may be justified?⁹ Have you an arm like God, and can you thunder with a voice like his?¹⁰ "Deck yourself with majesty and dignity; clothe yourself with glory and splendor.¹¹ Pour forth the overflowings of your anger, and look on 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 all in the dust together; bind their faces in the world below.¹⁴ Then will I also acknowledge to you, that your own right hand can give you victory.

¹⁵ "Behold, Be'hemoth, which I made as I made you; he eats grass like an ox.¹⁶ Behold, his strength in his loins, and his power in the muscles of his belly.¹⁷ He makes his tail stiff like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are knit together.¹⁸ His bones are tubes of bronze, his limbs like bars of iron.¹⁹ "He is the first of the works of God; let him who made him bring near his sword!²⁰ For the mountains yield food for him where all the wild beasts play.²¹ Under the lotus plants he lies, in the covert of the reeds and in the marsh.²² For his shade the lotus trees cover him; the willows of the brook surround him.²³ Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened; he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth.²⁴ Can one take him with hooks, or pierce his nose with a snare?
