7 Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. ASV — Job 40:7
8 Wilt thou even annul my judgment? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be justified? ASV — Job 40:8
9 Or hast thou an arm like God? And canst thou thunder with a voice like him? ASV — Job 40:9
10 Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; And array thyself with honor and majesty. ASV — Job 40:10
11 Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger; And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him. ASV — Job 40:11

14 Then will I also confess of thee That thine own right hand can save thee. ASV — Job 40:14
15 Behold now, behemoth, which I made as well as thee; He eateth grass as an ox. ASV — Job 40:15

17 He moveth his tail like a cedar: The sinews of his thighs are knit together. ASV — Job 40:17
18 His bones are [as] tubes of brass; His limbs are like bars of iron. ASV — Job 40:18
19 He is the chief of the ways of God: He [only] that made him giveth him his sword. ASV — Job 40:19
20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, Where all the beasts of the field do play. ASV — Job 40:20
21 He lieth under the lotus-trees, In the covert of the reed, and the fen. ASV — Job 40:21
22 The lotus-trees cover him with their shade; The willows of the brook compass him about. ASV — Job 40:22
23 Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; He is confident, though a Jordan swell even to his mouth. ASV — Job 40:23
24 Shall any take him when he is on the watch, Or pierce through his nose with a snare? ASV — Job 40:24
