Job 40:8-14
Expanded Bible
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].
Job 40:8-14
New American Standard Bible
8 Will you really (A)nullify My judgment?
Will you (B)condemn Me (C)so that you may be justified?
9 Or do you have an arm like God,
And can you (D)thunder with a voice like His?
10 “(E)Adorn yourself with pride and dignity,
And clothe yourself with honor and majesty.
11 Let out your (F)outbursts of anger,
And look at everyone who is (G)arrogant, and humble him.
12 Look at everyone who is arrogant, and (H)humble him,
And (I)trample down the wicked [a]where they stand.
13 (J)Hide them together in the dust;
Imprison [b]them in the hidden place.
14 Then I will also [c]confess to you,
That your own right hand can save you.
