Job - Chapter 41 - King James Version
- Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cordwhichthou lettest down?
- Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
- Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak softwordsunto thee?
- Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?
- Wilt thou play with him aswitha bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
- Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?
- Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?
- Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.
- Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall notonebe cast down even at the sight of him?
- Noneis sofierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?
- Who hath prevented me, that I should repayhim? whatsoever isunder the whole heaven is mine.
- I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.
- Who can discover the face of his garment?orwho can cometo himwith his double bridle?
- Who can open the doors of his face? his teethareterrible round about.
- Hisscalesare hispride, shut up togetheras witha close seal.
- One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
- They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
- By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyesarelike the eyelids of the morning.
- Out of his mouth go burning lamps,andsparks of fire leap out.
- Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, asoutof a seething pot or caldron.
- His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
- In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
- The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.
- His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nethermillstone.
- When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.
- The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.
- He esteemeth iron as straw,andbrass as rotten wood.
- The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
- Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.
- Sharp stonesareunder him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.
- He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.
- He maketh a path to shine after him;onewould think the deepto behoary.
- Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
- He beholdeth all highthings:heisa king over all the children of pride.
