God’s Power and Wisdom
40 Moreover the Lord (A)answered Job, and said:
2 “Shall (B)the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him?
He who (C)rebukes God, let him answer it.”
Job’s Response to God
3 Then Job answered the Lord and said:
4 “Behold,(D) I am vile;
What shall I answer You?
(E)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.”

Job 33:6-18
New King James Version
6 (A)Truly I am [a]as your spokesman before God;
I also have been formed out of clay.
7 (B)Surely no fear of me will terrify you,
Nor will my hand be heavy on you.
8 “Surely you have spoken [b]in my hearing,
And I have heard the sound of your words, saying,
9 ‘I(C) am pure, without transgression;
I am innocent, and there is no iniquity in me.
10 Yet He finds occasions against me,
(D)He counts me as His enemy;
11 (E)He puts my feet in the stocks,
He watches all my paths.’
12 “Look, in this you are not righteous.
I will answer you,
For God is greater than man.
13 Why do you (F)contend with Him?
For He does not give an accounting of any of His words.
14 (G)For God may speak in one way, or in another,
Yet man does not perceive it.
15 (H)In a dream, in a vision of the night,
When deep sleep falls upon men,
While slumbering on their beds,
16 (I)Then He opens the ears of men,
And seals their instruction.
17 In order to turn man from his deed,
And conceal pride from man,
18 He keeps back his soul from the Pit,
And his life from [c]perishing by the sword.
Job 33:6-18
New International Version
6 I am the same as you in God’s sight;(A)
I too am a piece of clay.(B)
7 No fear of me should alarm you,
nor should my hand be heavy on you.(C)
8 “But you have said in my hearing—
I heard the very words—
9 ‘I am pure,(D) I have done no wrong;(E)
I am clean and free from sin.(F)
10 Yet God has found fault with me;
he considers me his enemy.(G)
11 He fastens my feet in shackles;(H)
he keeps close watch on all my paths.’(I)
12 “But I tell you, in this you are not right,
for God is greater than any mortal.(J)
13 Why do you complain to him(K)
that he responds to no one’s words[a]?(L)
14 For God does speak(M)—now one way, now another(N)—
though no one perceives it.(O)
15 In a dream,(P) in a vision(Q) of the night,(R)
when deep sleep(S) falls on people
as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak(T) in their ears
and terrify them(U) with warnings,(V)
17 to turn them from wrongdoing
and keep them from pride,(W)
18 to preserve them from the pit,(X)
their lives from perishing by the sword.[b](Y)
Job 31:35
New King James Version
35 (A)Oh, that I had one to hear me!
Here is my mark.
Oh, (B)that the Almighty would answer me,
That my [a]Prosecutor had written a book!

3 (A)Oh, that I knew where I might find Him,
That I might come to His seat!
4 I would present my case before Him,
And fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would know the words which He would answer me,
And understand what He would say to me.
6 (B)Would He contend with me in His great power?
No! But He would take note of me.

And I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

and consider what he would say to me.
6 Would he vigorously oppose me?(E)
No, he would not press charges against me.(F)

and there I would be delivered forever from my judge.(I)
