29 From thence he looks for his food: his eyes look far away;

30 His young drink blood, and where there is a carcass, there he is.

31 And the Lord went on and said to Job,

32 Shall he who contends with the Almighty still teach? He who rebukes God, let him answer Him.

33 And Job answered the Lord, saying,

34 Behold, I am worthless; what shall I answer Thee? I put my hand on my mouth.

E-35 I said once, "Now I won't answer, not even twice, but I won't do it any more."

Chapter 40

1 And the Lord answered Job out of the storm, and said,

2 Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and thou shalt explain unto me.

3 Wilt thou overthrow my judgment, accuse me, that thou mayest justify thyself?

4 Do you have a muscle like God's? And can you thunder with a voice like Him?

5 Adorn thyself therefore with majesty and glory, clothe thyself with splendor and splendor;

6 Pour out the fury of thy wrath, look upon all that is proud, and humble it;

7 Look upon all the haughty, and humble them, and crush the wicked in their places.

8 Bury them all in the ground, and cover their faces with darkness.

9 Then will I also acknowledge that thy right hand is able to save thee.

10 Behold the hippopotamus whom I have created, even as I have created you; he eats grass like an ox;

11 Behold, his strength is in his loins, and his strength is in the muscles of his belly;

12 He turns his tail like a cedar; and the sinews of his thighs are intertwined;

13 His feet are like brass pipes; his bones are like bars of iron;

14 This is the top of the ways of God; only He who created it can draw His sword to it;

15 The mountains bring him food, and there all the beasts of the field play;

16 He lies under the shady trees, under the reeds, and in the marshes;

17 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; willows by the streams surround him;

18 Behold, he drinks of the river, and is not in a hurry; he remains calm, even though the Jordan rushes to his mouth.

19 Shall any man take him in his sight, and pierce his nose with a hook?

20 Can thou pull out the leviathan with a rod, and seize him by the tongue with a rope?
