Job 40:14
Then I will confess to you that your own right hand can save you.
BSB
ASV
Then will I also confess of thee That thine own right hand can save thee.
KJV
Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.
And I will confess that thy right hand can save thee. 14. As if He were openly saying, If thou art able to do these terrible things, which I Myself have displayed, I attribute to thee, and not to Myself, all the good things thou hast done. But if thou canst not destroy others, that sin, by a look, it is plain that thou canst not set thyself free from the guilt of wickedness, by thy own power.
Thine own right hand can save thee - It is the prerogative of God alone to save the human soul. Nothing less than unlimited power, exerted under the direction and impulse of unbounded mercy, can save a sinner.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
