40 Da svarede Herren Job ud fra Stormvejret og sagde: 2 "Omgjord som en Mand dine Lænder, jeg vil spørge, og du skal lære mig! 3 Mon du vil gøre min Ret til intet, dømme mig, for af du selv kan få Ret? 4 Har du en Arm som Gud, kan du tordne med Brag som han? 5 Smyk dig med Højhed og Storhed, klæd dig i Glans og Herlighed! 6 Udgyd din Vredes Strømme, slå de stolte ned med et Blik, 7 bøj med et Blik de stolte og knus på Stedet de gudløse, 8 skjul dem i Støvet til Hobe og lænk deres Åsyn i Skjulet! 9 Så vil jeg også love dig for Sejren, din højre har vundet.
10 Se Nilhesten! Den har jeg skabt såvel som dig. Som Oksen æder den Græs. 11 Se, hvilken Kraft i Lænderne og hvilken Styrke i Bugens Muskler! 12 Halen holder den stiv som en Ceder, Bovens Sener er flettet sammen; 13 dens Knogler er Rør af, Kobber, Benene i den som Stænger af Jern. 14 Den er Guds ypperste Skabning, skabt til at herske over de andre; 15 thi Foder til den bærer Bjergene, hvor Markens Vildt har Legeplads. 16 Den lægger sig hen under Lotusbuske, i Skjul af Siv og Rør; 17 Lotusbuskene giver den Tag og Skygge, Bækkens Pile yder den Hegn. 18 Den taber ej Modet, når Jordan stiger, er rolig, om Strømmen end svulmer mod dens Gab. 19 Hvem kan gribe den i dens Tænder og trække Reb igennem dens Snude?
20 Kan du trække Krokodillen op med Krog og binde dens Tunge med Snøre? 21 Kan du mon stikke et Siv i dens Snude, bore en Krog igennem dens Kæber? 22 Mon den vil trygle dig længe og give dig gode Ord? 23 Mon den vil indgå en Pagt med dig, så du får den til Træl for evigt? 24 Han du mon lege med den som en Fugl og tøjre den for dine Pigebørn? 25 Falbyder Fiskerlauget den og stykker den ud mellem Sælgerne? 26 Mon du kan spække dens Hud med Kroge og med Harpuner dens Hoved? 27 Læg dog engang din Hånd på den! Du vil huske den Kamp og gør det ej mer. 28 Det Håb vilde blive til Skamme, alene ved Synet lå du der.

40 The Lord answered and said to Job:
2 “Will the person who ·argues [contends] with the Almighty correct him?
Let the person who ·accuses [reproves] God answer him.”
3 Then Job answered the Lord:
4 “I am ·not worthy [small]; I cannot answer you anything,
so I will put my hand over my mouth [C to indicate no more talking].
5 I spoke one time, but I will not answer again;
I even spoke two times, but I will ·say [add] nothing more.”
6 Then the Lord spoke to Job from the ·storm [whirlwind]:
7 “·Be strong [Brace yourself; L Gird your loins], like a man!
I will ask you questions,
and you must ·answer [inform] me [38:3].
8 Would you ·say that I am unfair [discredit my justice]?
Would you ·blame [condemn] me to make yourself look ·right [righteous]?
9 ·Are you [L Is your arm] as strong as God?
Can your voice thunder like his?
10 If so, then decorate yourself with ·glory [loftiness] and ·beauty [pride];
dress in ·honor [splendor] and ·greatness [majesty] as if they were clothing.
11 Let your great anger ·punish [L loose];
look at the proud and bring them down.
12 Look at the proud and make them ·humble [submit].
Crush the wicked wherever they ·are [stand].
13 ·Bury [L Hide] them all in the ·dirt [dust] together;
·cover [hide] their faces in the ·grave [L hidden place].
14 If you can do that, then I myself will ·praise [acknowledge] you,
because ·you are strong enough to save yourself [L your right hand has given you the victory].
15 “Look at Behemoth, [C a large land animal or monster],
which I made just as I made you.
It eats grass like an ox.
16 Look at the strength it has in its ·body [L loins];
the muscles of its stomach are powerful.
17 Its tail ·is [stiffens] like a cedar tree;
the ·muscles [sinews] of its thighs are woven together.
18 Its bones are like tubes of bronze;
its legs are like bars of iron.
19 It is one of the first of God’s works,
but its Maker can ·destroy it [L approach it with a sword].
20 The hills, where the wild animals play,
provide food for it.
21 It ·lies [lives] under the lotus plants,
hidden by the ·tall grass in the swamp [reeds of the marsh].
22 The lotus plants ·hide [cover] it in their shadow;
the poplar trees by the ·streams [wadis] surround it.
23 If the river ·floods [grows turbulent], it will not ·be afraid [or hurry away];
it is ·safe [confident; secure] even if the Jordan River rushes to its mouth.
24 Can anyone ·blind its eyes and capture it [or take it with a hook]?
Can anyone ·put hooks in its nose [pierce its nose with a snare]?

40 The Lord said to Job:(A)
2 “Will the one who contends with the Almighty(B) correct him?(C)
Let him who accuses God answer him!”(D)
3 Then Job answered the Lord:
4 “I am unworthy(E)—how can I reply to you?
I put my hand over my mouth.(F)
5 I spoke once, but I have no answer(G)—
twice, but I will say no more.”(H)
6 Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm:(I)
7 “Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.(J)
8 “Would you discredit my justice?(K)
Would you condemn me to justify yourself?(L)
9 Do you have an arm like God’s,(M)
and can your voice(N) thunder like his?(O)
10 Then adorn yourself with glory and splendor,
and clothe yourself in honor and majesty.(P)
11 Unleash the fury of your wrath,(Q)
look at all who are proud and bring them low,(R)
12 look at all who are proud(S) and humble them,(T)
crush(U) the wicked where they stand.
13 Bury them all in the dust together;(V)
shroud their faces in the grave.(W)
14 Then I myself will admit to you
that your own right hand can save you.(X)
15 “Look at Behemoth,
which I made(Y) along with you
and which feeds on grass like an ox.(Z)
16 What strength(AA) it has in its loins,
what power in the muscles of its belly!(AB)
17 Its tail sways like a cedar;
the sinews of its thighs are close-knit.(AC)
18 Its bones are tubes of bronze,
its limbs(AD) like rods of iron.(AE)
19 It ranks first among the works of God,(AF)
yet its Maker(AG) can approach it with his sword.(AH)
20 The hills bring it their produce,(AI)
and all the wild animals play(AJ) nearby.(AK)
21 Under the lotus plants it lies,
hidden among the reeds(AL) in the marsh.(AM)
22 The lotuses conceal it in their shadow;
the poplars by the stream(AN) surround it.
23 A raging river(AO) does not alarm it;
it is secure, though the Jordan(AP) should surge against its mouth.
24 Can anyone capture it by the eyes,
or trap it and pierce its nose?(AQ)
