Job 40

40:1

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Job
<0347>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

40:2

Shall he that contendeth
<07378> (8800)

with the Almighty
<07706>

instruct
<03250>

[him]? he that reproveth
<03198> (8688)

God
<0433>_,

let him answer
<06030> (8799)

it.

40:3

Then Job
<0347>

answered
<06030> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

40:4

Behold, I am vile
<07043> (8804)_;

what shall I answer
<07725> (8686)

thee? I will lay
<07760> (8804)

mine hand
<03027>

upon
<03926>

my mouth
<06310>_.

40:5

Once
<0259>

have I spoken
<01696> (8765)_;

but I will not answer
<06030> (8799)_:

yea, twice
<08147>_;

but I will proceed no further
<03254> (8686)_.

40:6

Then answered
<06030> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

unto Job
<0347>

out of the whirlwind
<05591>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

40:7

Gird up
<0247> (8798)

thy loins
<02504>

now like a man
<01397>_:

I will demand
<07592> (8799)

of thee, and declare
<03045> (8685)

thou unto me.

40:8

Wilt thou also disannul
<06565> (8686)

my judgment
<04941>_?

wilt thou condemn
<07561> (8686)

me, that thou mayest be righteous
<06663> (8799)_?

40:9

Hast thou an arm
<02220>

like God
<0410>_?

or canst thou thunder
<07481> (8686)

with a voice
<06963>

like him?

40:10

Deck
<05710> (8798)

thyself now [with] majesty
<01347>

and excellency
<01363>_;

and array
<03847> (8799)

thyself with glory
<01935>

and beauty
<01926>_.

40:11

Cast abroad
<06327> (8685)

the rage
<05678>

of thy wrath
<0639>_:

and behold
<07200> (8798)

every one [that is] proud
<01343>_,

and abase
<08213> (8685)

him.

40:12

Look
<07200> (8798)

on every one [that is] proud
<01343>_,

[and] bring him low
<03665> (8685)_;

and tread down
<01915> (8798)

the wicked
<07563>

in their place.

40:13

Hide
<02934> (8798)

them in the dust
<06083>

together
<03162>_;

[and] bind
<02280> (8798)

their faces
<06440>

in secret
<02934> (8803)_.

40:14

Then will I also confess
<03034> (8686)

unto thee that thine own right hand
<03225>

can save
<03467> (8686)

thee.

40:15

Behold now behemoth
<0930>_,

which I made
<06213> (8804)

with thee; he eateth
<0398> (8799)

grass
<02682>

as an ox
<01241>_.

{behemoth: probably an extinct animal of some kind}

40:16

Lo now, his strength
<03581>

[is] in his loins
<04975>_,

and his force
<0202>

[is] in the navel
<08306>

of his belly
<0990>_.

40:17

He moveth
<02654> (8799)

his tail
<02180>

like a cedar
<0730>_:

the sinews
<01517>

of his stones
<06344>

are wrapped together
<08276> (8792)_.

{He...: or, He setteth up}

40:18

His bones
<06106>

[are as] strong
<0650>

pieces of brass
<05154>_;

his bones
<01634>

[are] like bars
<04300>

of iron
<01270>_.

40:19

He [is] the chief
<07225>

of the ways
<01870>

of God
<0410>_:

he that made
<06213> (8802)

him can make
<05066> (0)

his sword
<02719>

to approach
<05066> (8686)

[unto him].

40:20

Surely the mountains
<02022>

bring him forth
<05375> (8799)

food
<0944>_,

where all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

play
<07832> (8762)_.

40:21

He lieth
<07901> (8799)

under the shady trees
<06628>_,

in the covert
<05643>

of the reed
<07070>_,

and fens
<01207>_.

40:22

The shady trees
<06628>

cover
<05526> (8799)

him [with] their shadow
<06752>_;

the willows
<06155>

of the brook
<05158>

compass him about
<05437> (8799)_.

40:23

Behold, he drinketh up
<06231> (8799)

a river
<05104>_,

[and] hasteth
<02648> (8799)

not: he trusteth
<0982> (8799)

that he can draw up
<01518> (8799)

Jordan
<03383>

into his mouth
<06310>_.

{he drinketh up: Heb. he oppresseth}

40:24

He taketh
<03947> (8799)

it with his eyes
<05869>_:

[his] nose
<0639>

pierceth through
<05344> (8799)

snares
<04170>_.

{He...: or, Will any take him in his sight, or, bore his nose with a gin?}
