And responded the lord God to Job, and said,
Shall a judgment with the fit one you judge? One reproving God— shall he answer him?
And undertaking, Job says to the lord,
Why still do I plead, being admonished and reproved by the lord? Hearing such things, and being nothing; and I, what answer shall I give to these things? A hand I shall put upon my mouth.
Once I have spoken, but for the second time I will not proceed.
And again undertaking, the lord spoke to Job from out of the cloud, saying,
But no, tie up as a man your loin! And I will ask you, then you answer me!
Or should you undo my judgment? And do you imagine me otherwise executing things with you? or that you should appear just?
or your arm is as the arm of the lord? or with a voice as his do you thunder?
Then lift yourself up in stature and power, with glory and and honor clothe yourself!
And send angels in anger, all and the arrogant humble!
The proud man and extinguish! Cause to rot and the impious immediately!
And hide them in the earth with one accord! and the things of their faces with dishonor fill!
And indeed, I shall acknowledge surely that is able your right hand to deliver.
But indeed, behold, the wild beast by you; grass equal to oxen it eats.
Behold indeed, his strength is in his loin, and his power is in the navel of his belly.
He sets his tail as a cypress; and his nerves are closely joined.
His sides are sides of brass; and his spine iron is as cast.
This is the beginning of the thing shaped by the lord; being made to be mocked by his angels.
And coming upon mountain a chiseled, he produces a cause for joy to the four-footed in the infernal region.
Under all kinds of trees he sleeps; by the papyrus, reed and flowering rush.
Shadowed and in him trees with scions and branches of the chaste tree.
If there becomes an inundation, in no way shall it be perceived; he relies that will rush up the Jordan into his mouth.
In his eye will one take him? Being caught in a snare will you drill his nose?
