Read in context

Job 40:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 “Now brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall inform Me.

8 Would you really annul My justice? Would you condemn Me to justify yourself?

9 Do you have an arm like God’s? Can you thunder with a voice like His?

10 Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, and clothe yourself with honor and glory.

11 Unleash the fury of your wrath; look on every proud man and bring him low.
