Job 40:5

“I have spoken once, and I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”

Verse in context — Job 40

Then Job answered Yahweh,

Behold, I am of small account. What shall I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.

I have spoken once, and I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.

Then Yahweh answered Job out of the whirlwind,

Now brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you will answer me.

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
