Year 1 - January 28

Year 1, January 28, Job – Job 40:1-9

Passage

   And the Lord said to Job:
   
   “Shall a faultfinder contend with the Almighty?
   He who argues with God, let him answer it.”
   Then Job answered the Lord and said:
   
   “Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer you?
   I lay my hand on my mouth.
   I have spoken once, and I will not answer;
   twice, but I will proceed no further.”
   
   Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
   
   “Dress for action like a man;
   I will question you, and you make it known to me.
   Will you even put me in the wrong?
   Will you condemn me that you may be in the right?
   Have you an arm like God,
   and can you thunder with a voice like his?
