1. Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said,
2. Shall he that cavilleth contend with the Almighty? he that argueth with God, let him answer it.
3. Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
4. Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer thee? I lay mine hand upon my mouth.
5. Once have I spoken, and I will not answer; yea twice, but I will proceed no further.
6. Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
7. Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8. Wilt thou even disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified?
9. Or hast thou an arm like God? and canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
10. Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; and array thyself with honour and majesty.
11. Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger: and look upon 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 in the dust together; bind their faces in the hidden place.
14. Then wilt I also confess of thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
