40:1 ^[411] KJV [6] Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

40:2 KJV [7] Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me:

40:3 KJV [8] Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous:

40:4 KJV [9] Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him:

40:5 KJV [10] Deck thyself now [with] majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty:

40:6 KJV [11] Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one [that is] proud, and abase him:

40:7 KJV [12] Look on every one [that is] proud, [and] bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place:

40:8 KJV [13] Hide them in the dust together; [and] bind their faces in secret:

40:9 KJV [14] Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee:

40:10 KJV [15] Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox:

40:11 KJV [16] Lo now, his strength [is] in his loins, and his force [is] in the navel of his belly:

40:12 KJV [17] He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together:

40:13 KJV [18] His bones [are as] strong pieces of brass; his bones [are] like bars of iron:

40:14 KJV [19] He [is] the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach:

40:15 KJV [20] Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play:

40:16 KJV [21] He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens:

40:17 KJV [22] The shady trees cover him [with] their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about:

40:18 KJV [23] Behold, he drinketh up a river, [and] hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth:

40:19 KJV [24] He taketh it with his eyes: [his] nose pierceth through snares:

40:20 KJV [41.1] Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord [which] thou lettest down:

40:21 KJV [41.2] Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn:

40:22 KJV [41.3] Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft [words] unto thee:

40:23 KJV [41.4] Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever:

40:24 KJV [41.5] Wilt thou play with him as [with] a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens:

40:25 KJV [41.6] Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants:

40:26 KJV [41.7] Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears:

40:27 KJV [41.8] Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more:

40:28 KJV [41.9] Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not [one] be cast down even at the sight of him:
