Job 40:1-8

1The LORD said to Job:

2“Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let him who accuses God answer him!”

3Then Job answered the LORD :

4“I am unworthy—how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth.

5I spoke once, but I have no answer— twice, but I will say no more.”

6Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm:

7“Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.

8“Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself?
