Job 40:1-24
Job answered the Lord:"I am unworthy - how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth. I spoke once, but I have no answer - twice, but I will say no more."
The Lord spoke to Job out of the storm:"Brace yourself like a man; I will question you and you shall answer me. "Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself? ..."
Look at the behemoth河馬, which I made along with you and which feeds on grass like an ox.
Look at just two of my creatures, says God - Behemoth(the hippopotamus) and Leviathan (the crocodile). Look at their strength.
Why?
Is Job God's equal, that he calls him to book, and questions his justice? (Job's wild words had brought him dangerously near the sin of Adam and Eve)
God seriously criticize Job his justice is wrong. God does not have to answer Job's questions.
How?
To be a man we only have to humble ourselves, God is always right and good, he is the sovereign Lord.
