  1. Moreover God answered Job:
    “Shall the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him?
    He who rebukes God, let him answer it.”

    Then Job answered the Lord:
    “Behold, I am vile;
    What shall I answer You?
    I lay my hand over my mouth.

    Once I have spoken, but I will not answer;
    Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”

    Then God answered Job out of the whirlwind:
    “Now prepare yourself like a man;
    I will question you, and you shall answer Me:

    “Would you indeed annul (nullify) My judgment?
    Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?

    Have you an arm like God?
    Or can you thunder with a voice like His?

    Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor,
    And array yourself with glory and beauty.

    Disperse the rage of your wrath;
    Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him.

    Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low;
    Tread down the wicked in their place.

    Hide them in the dust together,
    Bind their faces in hidden darkness.

    Then I will also confess to you
    That your own right hand can save you.
