యోబు~ గ్రంథము 40
And the Lord God answered Job, and said,
2 ౨ ఆక్షేపణలు చేయాలని చూసేవాడు సర్వశక్తుడైన దేవుణ్ణి సరిదిద్దాలని చూడవచ్చా? దేవునితో వాదించేవాడు ఇప్పుడు జవాబియ్యాలి.
Will [any one] pervert judgment with the Mighty One? and he that reproves God, let him return it for answer.
And Job answered and said to the Lord,
Why do I yet plead? being rebuked even while reproving the Lord: hearing such things, whereas I am nothing: and what shall I answer to these [arguments]? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.
I have spoken once; but I will not do so a second time.
And the Lord yet again answered and spoke to Job out of the cloud, [saying],
Nay, gird up now your loins like a man; and I will ask you, and do you answer me.
Do not set aside my judgment: and do you think that I have dealt with you in any other way, than that you might appear to be righteous?
Hast you an arm like the Lord's? or do you thunder with a voice like his?
Assume now a lofty bearing and power; and clothe yourself with glory and honor.
And send forth messengers with wrath; and lay low every haughty one.
Bring down also the proud man; and consume at once the ungodly.
And hide them together in the earth; and fill their faces with shame.
[Then] will I confess that your right hand can save [you].
15 ౧౫ నిన్ను చేసినట్టే నేను చేసిన మరొక జీవి నీటి ఏనుగును నువ్వు చూశావు గదా? ఎద్దులాగా అది గడ్డి మేస్తుంది.
But now look at the wild beasts with you; they eat grass like oxen.
Behold now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
He sets up his tail like a cypress; and his nerves are wrapped together.
His sides are sides of brass; and his backbone is [as] cast iron.
This is the chief of the creation of the Lord; made to be played with by his angels.
And when he has gone up to a steep mountain, he causes joy to the quadrupeds in the deep.
He lies under trees of every kind, by the papyrus, and reed, and bulrush.
And the great trees make a shadow over him with their branches, and [so do] the bushes of the field.
23 ౨౩ నదీప్రవాహం పొంగి పొర్లినా అది భయపడదు. యొర్దాను లాంటి ప్రవాహం పొంగి దాని ముట్టె దాకా వచ్చినా అది బెదరదు.
If there should be a flood, he will not perceive it; he trust that Jordan will rush up into his mouth.
[Yet one] shall take him in his sight; [one] shall catch [him] with a cord, and pierce his nose.
