The lion has gone up from his lair, he has roused [himself] to the destruction of the nations, and has gone forth out of his place, to make the land desolate; and the cities shall be destroyed, so as to be without inhabitant.

Behold, he shall come up as a lion from Jordan to Gaethan; for I will speedily drive them from her, and I will set all the youths against her; for who is like Me? And who will resist Me? And who is this shepherd who will stand before Me?

Or at the sound of the taking of Babylon the earth shall quake, and a cry shall be heard among the nations.

There is a voice of the shepherds mourning, for their greatness is brought low; a voice of roaring lions, for the pride of the Jordan is brought down.

Your feet run, and they cause you to faint; how will you prepare [to ride] upon horses? And you have been confident in the land of your peace? How will you do in the roaring of the Jordan?

And when the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord entered the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord were dipped in part of the water of the Jordan (now the Jordan overflowed all its banks about the time of wheat harvest),

These [are] the [men] that crossed over the Jordan in the first month, and it had overflowed all its banks; and they drove out all the inhabitants of the valleys, from the east to the west.

Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You? Glorified in holiness, marvelous in glories, doing wonders.

For who in the heavens shall be compared to the Lord? And who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of God?

O Lord God of hosts, who is like You? You are mighty, O Lord, and Your truth is round about You.

Who is as the Lord our God? Who dwells in the high places,

and [yet] looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the earth;

Now then to whom have you compared Me, that I may be exalted? Says the Holy One.

For indeed He is strong in power: who then shall resist His judgment?

For even if I have sinned, I know it not in my soul: but my life is taken away.

Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, and come to an end [of the matter]!

And I would know the remedies which He would speak to me, and I would perceive what He would tell me.

for truth and reproof are from Him, and He would bring forth my judgment to an end.

[ 39:32] Will [anyone] pervert judgment with the Mighty One? And he that reproves God, let him answer it.

[ 39:34] Why do I yet plead? Being rebuked even while reproving the Lord: hearing such things, whereas I am nothing: and what shall I answer to these [arguments]? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.

[ 40:1] And the Lord yet again answered and spoke to Job out of the cloud, [saying],

[ 40:3] Do not set aside My judgment: and do you think that I have dealt with you in any other way, than that you might appear to be righteous?

For who is he that hides counsel from You? Or who keeps back his words, and thinks to hide them from You? And who will tell me what I knew not, great and wonderful things which I understood not?

I have heard the report of You by the ear before; but now my eye has seen You.

And enter not into judgment with Your servant, for in Your sight shall no [man] living be justified.

And their mighty ones shall be over them, and their prince shall proceed of themselves; and I will gather them, and they shall return to Me; for who is this that has set his heart to return to Me? Says the Lord.

[ 41:1] Do you not fear because preparation has been made by Me? For who is there that resists Me?

[For] You are to be feared; and who shall withstand You, because of Your anger?

Who shall stand before His anger? And who shall withstand in the anger of His wrath? His wrath brings to nought kingdoms, and the rocks are thrown down by Him.

For the great day of His wrath has come, and who shall be able to stand?"
