Job 40:4-9
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 40

4'Behold, I am insignificant; what can I say in response to You? I put my hand on my mouth. 5I have spoken once, and I will not reply; Or twice, and I will add nothing more.'
6Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind and said,
7'Now tighten the belt on your waist like a man; I will ask you, and you instruct Me. 8Will you really nullify My judgment? Will you condemn Me so that you may be justified? 9Or do you have an arm like God, And can you thunder with a voice like His?
King James Version

Chapter 40

4Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
5Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further. 6Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 7Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
8Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
9Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 40

4I am so insignificant. How can I answer you? I place my hand over my mouth. 5I have spoken once, and I will not reply; twice, but now I can add nothing.
6Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind:
7Get ready to answer me like a man; When I question you, you will inform me. 8Would you really challenge my justice? Would you declare me guilty to justify yourself?
9Do you have an arm like God’s? Can you thunder with a voice like his?
New Living Translation

Chapter 40

4'I am nothing — how could I ever find the answers? I will cover my mouth with my hand. 5I have said too much already. I have nothing more to say.'
6Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind:
7'Brace yourself like a man, because I have some questions for you, and you must answer them.
8'Will you discredit my justice and condemn me just to prove you are right? 9Are you as strong as God? Can you thunder with a voice like his?
English Standard Version

Chapter 40

4"Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth. 5I have spoken once, and I will not answer; twice, but I will proceed no further." 6Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
7 "Dress for action like a man; I will question you, and you make it known to me. 8Will you even put me in the wrong? Will you condemn me that you may be in the right? 9Have you an arm like God, and can you thunder with a voice like his?
New International Version

Chapter 40

4"I am unworthy—how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth. 5I spoke once, but I have no answer— twice, but I will say no more."
6Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm:
7"Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me. 8"Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself? 9Do you have an arm like God’s, and can your voice thunder like his?
New King James Version

Chapter 40

4“Behold, I am vile; What shall I answer You? I lay my hand over my mouth. 5Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”
6Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:
7“Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me: 8“Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me that you may be justified? 9Have you an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like His?
