I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.\n \n5\u00a0Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.\n \n6\u00a0Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,\n \n7\u00a0Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.\n \n8\u00a0Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?\n \n9\u00a0Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?\n \n10\u00a0Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.\n \n11\u00a0Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.\n \n12\u00a0Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.\n \n13\u00a0Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.\n \n14\u00a0Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.\n \n15\u00a0Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.\n \n16\u00a0Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.\n \n17\u00a0He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.\n \n18\u00a0His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.\n \n19\u00a0He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.\n \n20\u00a0Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.\n \n21\u00a0He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.\n \n22\u00a0The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.\n \n23\u00a0Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.\n \n24\u00a0He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.","title":"King James Version: Job: Job Chapter 40","type":"page"}
