- 1. Moreouer the Lord answered Iob, and said,
- 2. Shall hee that contendeth with the Almightie, instruct him? he that reproueth God, let him answere it.
- 3. Then Iob answered the Lord, and said,
- 4. Behold, I am vile, what shall I answere thee? I wil lay my hand vpon my mouth.
- 5. Once haue I spoken, but I will not answere: yea twise, but I will proceed no further.
- 6. Then answered the Lord vnto Iob out of the whirlewinde, and said:
- 7. Gird vp thy loynes now like a man: I will demaund of thee, and declare thou vnto me.
- 8. Wilt thou also disanul my iudgement? Wilt thou condemne mee, that thou mayest be righteous?
- 9. Hast thou an arme like God? or canst thou thunder with a voyce like him?
- 10. Decke thy selfe now with Maiestie, and excellencie, and aray thy selfe with glory, and beautie.
- 11. Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold euery one that is proud, and abase him.
- 12. Looke on euery one that is proud, and bring him low: and tread downe the wicked in their place.
- 13. Hide them in the dust together, and binde their faces in secret.
- 14. Then will I also confesse vnto thee, that thine owne right hand can saue thee.
- 15. Beholde now Behemoth which I made with thee, hee eateth grasse as an oxe.
- 16. Loe now, his strength is in his loynes, and his force is in the nauell of his belly.
- 17. Hee moueth his taile like a Cedar: the sinewes of his stones are wrapt together.
- 18. His bones are as strong pieces of brasse: his bones are like barres of iron.
- 19. Hee is the chiefe of the wayes of God: he that made him, can make his sword to approach vnto him.
- 20. Surely the mountaines bring him foorth foode: where all the beasts of the field play.
- 21. He lieth vnder the shady trees in the couert of the reede, and fennes.
- 22. The shady trees couer him with their shaddow: the willowes of the brooke compasse him about.
- 23. Behold, he drinketh vp a riuer, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw vp Iordan into his mouth.
- 24. He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pearceth through snares.
