Job 40:1-14 - I Am The Lord All-Powerful

¹ The LORD continued his response to Job by saying: ² "Should the one who is fighting the Almighty find fault with him? Let God's accuser answer."

³ Then Job replied to the LORD. He said: ⁴ "I must look insignificant to you! How can I answer you? I'm speechless. ⁵ I spoke once, but I can't answer; I tried a second time, but I won't do so anymore."

⁶ The LORD answered Job from the wind storm and told him: ⁷ "Stand up like a man! I'll ask you some questions, and you give me some answers! ⁸ Indeed would you annul my justice and condemn me, just so you can claim that you're righteous? ⁹ Do you have strength like God? Can you create thunder with a sound like he can?"

¹⁰ "When you have adorned yourself with exalted majesty, clothed yourself with splendor and dignity, ¹¹ dispensed the fury of your anger, made sure that you have humbled every proud person, ¹² stared down and subdued every proud person, trampled the wicked right where they are, ¹³ buried them in the dust together, and sent them bound to that secret place, ¹⁴ then I will applaud you myself! I'll admit that you can deliver yourself by your own efforts!"
