Then Job answered the Lord and said:
4
"Behold, I am vile; What shall I answer You? I lay my hand over my mouth.
5
Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further."
6
Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:
7
"Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me:
8
"Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?
9
Have you an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like His?
10
Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, And array yourself with glory and beauty.
11
Disperse the rage of your wrath; Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him.
12
Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low; Tread down the wicked in their place.
13
Hide them in the dust together, Bind their faces in hidden darkness.
