Job 40:8-9

Context

40:8 Would you indeed annul 1  my justice?

Would you declare me guilty so that you might be right?

40:9 Do you have an arm as powerful as God’s, 2 

and can you thunder with a voice like his?

1 tn The verb פָּרַר (parar) means “to annul; to break; to frustrate.” It was one thing for Job to claim his own integrity, but it was another matter altogether to nullify God’s righteousness in the process.

2 tn Heb “do you have an arm like God?” The words “as powerful as” have been supplied in the translation to clarify the metaphor.
