1The LORD answered Job: 1וַיַּ֖עַן יְהוָ֥ה אֶת־ אִיּ֗וֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him? Let him who argues with God give an answer. 2הֲ֭רֹב עִם־ שַׁדַּ֣י יִסּ֑וֹר מוֹכִ֖יחַ אֱל֣וֹהַּ יַעֲנֶֽנָּה׃ פ
3Then Job answered the LORD: 3וַיַּ֖עַן אִיּ֥וֹב אֶת־ יְהוָ֗ה וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
4I am so insignificant. How can I answer You? I place my hand over my mouth. 4הֵ֣ן קַ֭לֹּתִי מָ֣ה אֲשִׁיבֶ֑ךָּ יָ֝דִ֗י שַׂ֣מְתִּי לְמוֹ־ פִֽי׃
5I have spoken once, and I will not reply; twice, but now I can add nothing. 5אַחַ֣ת דִּ֭בַּרְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אֶֽעֱנֶ֑ה וּ֝שְׁתַּ֗יִם וְלֹ֣א אוֹסִֽיף׃ פ
6Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind: 6וַיַּֽעַן־ יְהוָ֣ה אֶת־ אִ֭יּוֹב [מנ‪‬] [סערה] (מִ֥ן ׀) (סְעָרָ֗ה) וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
7Get ready to answer Me like a man; When I question you, you will inform Me. 7אֱזָר־ נָ֣א כְגֶ֣בֶר חֲלָצֶ֑יךָ אֶ֝שְׁאָלְךָ֗ וְהוֹדִיעֵֽנִי׃
8Would you really challenge My justice? Would you declare Me guilty to justify yourself? 8הַ֭אַף תָּפֵ֣ר מִשְׁפָּטִ֑י תַּ֝רְשִׁיעֵ֗נִי לְמַ֣עַן תִּצְדָּֽק׃
9Do you have an arm like God's? Can you thunder with a voice like His? 9וְאִם־ זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ וּ֝בְק֗וֹל כָּמֹ֥הוּ תַרְעֵֽם׃
10Adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, and clothe yourself with honor and glory. 10עֲדֵ֥ה נָ֣א גָֽא֣וֹן‪‬ וָגֹ֑בַהּ וְה֖וֹד וְהָדָ֣ר תִּלְבָּֽשׁ׃
11Unleash your raging anger; look on every proud person and humiliate him. 11הָ֭פֵץ עֶבְר֣וֹת אַפֶּ֑ךָ וּרְאֵ֥ה כָל־ גֵּ֝אֶ֗ה וְהַשְׁפִּילֵֽהוּ׃
12Look on every proud person and humble him; trample the wicked where they stand. 12רְאֵ֣ה כָל־ גֵּ֭אֶה הַכְנִיעֵ֑הוּ וַהֲדֹ֖ךְ רְשָׁעִ֣ים תַּחְתָּֽם׃
13Hide them together in the dust; imprison them in the grave. 13טָמְנֵ֣ם בֶּעָפָ֣ר יָ֑חַד פְּ֝נֵיהֶ֗ם חֲבֹ֣שׁ בַּטָּמֽוּן׃
14Then I will confess to you that your own right hand can deliver you. 14וְגַם־ אֲנִ֥י אוֹדֶ֑ךָּ כִּֽי־ תוֹשִׁ֖עַ לְךָ֣ יְמִינֶֽךָ׃
15Look at Behemoth, which I made along with you. He eats grass like an ox. 15הִנֵּה־ נָ֣א בְ֭הֵמוֹת אֲשֶׁר־ עָשִׂ֣יתִי עִמָּ֑ךְ חָ֝צִ֗יר כַּבָּקָ֥ר יֹאכֵֽל׃
16Look at the strength of his loins and the power in the muscles of his belly. 16הִנֵּה־ נָ֣א כֹח֣וֹ בְמָתְנָ֑יו וְ֝אֹנ֗וֹ בִּשְׁרִירֵ֥י בִטְנֽוֹ׃
17He stiffens his tail like a cedar tree; the tendons of his thighs are woven firmly together. 17יַחְפֹּ֣ץ זְנָב֣וֹ כְמוֹ־ אָ֑רֶז גִּידֵ֖י [פחדו] (פַחֲדָ֣יו) יְשֹׂרָֽגוּ׃
18His bones are bronze tubes; his limbs are like iron rods. 18עֲ֭צָמָיו אֲפִיקֵ֣י נְחוּשָׁ֑ה גְּ֝רָמָ֗יו כִּמְטִ֥יל בַּרְזֶֽל׃
19He is the foremost of God's works; only his Maker can draw the sword against him. 19ה֭וּא רֵאשִׁ֣ית דַּרְכֵי־ אֵ֑ל הָ֝עֹשׂוֹ יַגֵּ֥שׁ חַרְבּֽוֹ׃
20The hills yield food for him, while all sorts of wild animals play there. 20כִּֽי־ ב֭וּל הָרִ֣ים יִשְׂאוּ־ ל֑וֹ וְֽכָל־ חַיַּ֥ת הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה יְשַֽׂחֲקוּ־ שָֽׁם׃
21He lies under the lotus plants, hiding in the protection of marshy reeds. 21תַּֽחַת־ צֶאֱלִ֥ים יִשְׁכָּ֑ב בְּסֵ֖תֶר קָנֶ֣ה וּבִצָּֽה׃
22Lotus plants cover him with their shade; the willows by the brook surround him. 22יְסֻכֻּ֣הוּ צֶאֱלִ֣ים צִֽלֲל֑וֹ יְ֝סֻבּ֗וּהוּ עַרְבֵי־ נָֽחַל׃
23Though the river rages, Behemoth is unafraid; he remains confident, even if the Jordan surges up to his mouth. 23הֵ֤ן יַעֲשֹׁ֣ק נָ֭הָר לֹ֣א יַחְפּ֑וֹז יִבְטַ֓ח ׀ כִּֽי־ יָגִ֖יחַ יַרְדֵּ֣ן אֶל־ פִּֽיהוּ׃
24Can anyone capture him while he looks on, or pierce his nose with snares? 24בְּעֵינָ֥יו יִקָּחֶ֑נּוּ בְּ֝מֽוֹקְשִׁ֗ים יִנְקָב־ אָֽף׃
