Job 40:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 40:4

2 “Shall ^athe one who contends with the Almighty correct Him?
He who ^brebukes God, let him answer it.”

3 Then Job answered the Lord and said:

4 “Behold,^a I am vile;
What shall I answer You?
^bI lay my hand over my mouth.

5 Once I have spoken, but I will not answer;
Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”

6 ^aThen the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

7 “Now¹^a prepare yourself like a man;
^bI will question you, and you shall answer Me:

8 “Would^a you indeed annul My judgment?
Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?

9 Have you an arm like God?
Or can you thunder with ^aa voice like His?

10 ^aThen adorn yourself with majesty and splendor,
And array yourself with glory and beauty.
