New Testament

Job 40:8-20 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. Would you question my justice,deem me guilty so you can be innocent?

9. Or do you have an arm like God;can you thunder with a voice like him?

10. Adorn yourself with splendor and majesty;clothe yourself with honor and esteem.

11. Unleash your raging anger;look on all the proud and humble them.

12. Look on all the proud and debase them;trample the wicked in their place.

13. Hide them together in the dust;bind their faces in a hidden place.

14. Then I, even I, will praise you,for your strong hand has delivered you.

15. Look at Behemoth, whom I made along with you;he eats grass like cattle.

16. Look, his strength is in his thighs,his power in stomach muscles.

17. He stiffens his tail like a cedar;the tendons in his thighs are tightly woven.

18. His bones are like bronze tubes,his limbs like iron bars.

19. He is the first of God’s acts;only his maker can come near him with a sword.

20. Indeed, the hills bring him tribute,places where all the wild animals play.
