¹Moreover the Lord answered Job, and said,4 sermons²Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.2 sermons³Then Job answered the Lord, and said,2 sermons⁴Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.6 sermons⁵Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.2 sermons⁶Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,1 sermon⁷Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.1 sermon⁸Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?1 sermon⁹Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?1 sermon¹⁰Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.1 sermon¹¹Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.1 sermon¹²Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.1 sermon¹³Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.1 sermon¹⁴Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.1 sermon¹⁵Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.6 sermons¹⁶Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.4 sermons¹⁷He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.4 sermons¹⁸His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.4 sermons¹⁹He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.5 sermons²⁰Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.5 sermons²¹He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.5 sermons²²The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.4 sermons²³Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.3 sermons²⁴He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.3 sermons
