Job 40:8-14

The Voice

⁸    Let Me ask you a new question:
    Would you go so far as to call into question My judgment?
        Would you imagine Me guilty merely in order to justify yourself?
⁹    Do you have an arm just as powerful as God’s
        and does your voice thunder as His does?

¹⁰    Then dress yourself up in majesty and dignity.
        Deck yourself out in honor and splendor
¹¹    And indulge your anger.
        Unleash your wrath!
        Look down on each and every proud soul, and cut him low.
¹²    Look down on all who are proud, and humiliate them.
        Raise your mighty foot, and stomp the wicked where they stand.
¹³    Bury them all together in the dirt,
        and shroud their frozen faces in the secret recesses of the grave.
¹⁴    If you can execute all this,
        then I—yes, even I—will praise you,
        for your great and mighty right hand earned you the victory!
