Job 40:3

1 And the LORD said to Job:

2 “Will the faultfinder contend with the Almighty? Let him who argues with God give an answer.”

Then Job answered the LORD:

4 “Behold, I am insignificant. How can I reply to You? I place my hand over my mouth.

5 I have spoken once, but I have no answer— twice, but I have nothing to add.”

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
