3Then Job answered Yahweh,

4“Behold, I am of small account. What will I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.

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

6Then Yahweh answered Job out of the whirlwind,

7“Now brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you will answer me.

8Will you even annul my judgment? Will you condemn me, that you may be justified?

9Or do you have an arm like God? Can you thunder with a voice like him?

10“Now deck yourself with excellency and dignity. Array yourself with honor and majesty.

11Pour out the fury of your anger. Look at everyone who is proud, and bring him low.

12Look at everyone who is proud, and humble him. Crush the wicked in their place.
