Job 40:11

11 Derrama los torrentes de tu ira, mira a todo soberbio y abátelo,

Job 40:11 Meaning and Commentary

Job 40:11

Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath
Work thyself up into a passion, at least seemingly; put on all the airs of a wrathful and enraged king on a throne of state, whose wrath is like the roaring of a lion, and as messengers of death; pour out menaces plentifully, threatening what thou wilt do; and try if by such means thou canst humble the spirit of a proud man, as follows;

and behold everyone [that is] proud, and abase him;
look sternly at him, put on a fierce, furious, and menacing countenance, and see if thou canst dash a proud man out of countenance, and humble him before thee, as I am able; among the many instances of divine power the Lord settles upon this one, and proposes it to Job to try his skill and power upon, the humbling of a proud man.

Job 40:11 In-Context

9 ¿Acaso tienes tú un brazo como el de Dios, y truenas con una voz como la suya?
10 Adórnate ahora de majestad y dignidad, y vístete de gloria y de esplendor.
11 Derrama los torrentes de tu ira, mira a todo soberbio y abátelo,
12 mira a todo soberbio y humíllalo, y pisotea a los impíos donde están.
13 Escóndelos juntos en el polvo; átalos en el lugar oculto.
