Bible verse
Would you really annul My justice? Would you condemn Me to justify yourself?
Job 40:8 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 40.
4 “Behold, I am insignificant. How can I reply to You? I place my hand over my mouth.
5 I have spoken once, but I have no answer—twice, but I have nothing to add.”
6 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
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.
12 Look on every proud man and humble him; trample the wicked where they stand.
