Job 41:1 Canst thou draw out4900 leviathan3882{That is, a whale or a whirlpool} with an hook?2443 or his tongue3956 with a cord2256which thou lettest down?8257{Heb. which thou drownest}2 Canst thou put7760 an hook100 into his nose?639 or bore5344 his jaw3895 through with a thorn?23363 Will he make many7235 supplications8469 unto thee? will he speak1696 soft7390words unto thee?
4 Will he make3772 a covenant1285 with thee? wilt thou take3947 him for a servant5650 for ever?57695 Wilt thou play7832 with him as with a bird?6833 or wilt thou bind7194 him for thy maidens?52916 Shall the companions2271 make a banquet3739 of him? shall they part2673 him among the merchants?36697 Canst thou fill4390 his skin5785 with barbed irons?7905 or his head7218 with fish1709 spears?67678 Lay7760 thine hand3709 upon him, remember2142 the battle,4421 do no more.32549 Behold, the hope8431 of him is in vain:3576 shall not one be cast down2904 even at the sight4758 of him?
10 None isso fierce393 that dare stir him up:57825782 who then is able to stand3320 before6440 me?
11 Who hath prevented6923 me, that I should repay7999him?whatsoeveris under the whole heaven8064 is mine.
12 I will not conceal2790 his parts,907 nor his power,13691697 nor his comely2433 proportion.618713 Who can discover1540 the face6440 of his garment?3830or who can come935tohim with{Or, within} his double3718 bridle?744814 Who can open6605 the doors1817 of his face?6440 his teeth8127are terrible367 round about.543915His scales4043650{Heb. strong pieces of shields}arehis pride,1346 shut up together5462aswith a close6862 seal.236816 One259 is so near5066 to another,259 that no air7307 can come935 between them.
17 They are joined1692 one376 to another,251 they stick together,3920 that they cannot be sundered.650418 By his neesings5846 a light216 doth shine,1984 and his eyes5869are like the eyelids6079 of the morning.783719 Out of his mouth6310 go1980 burning lamps,3940and sparks3590 of fire784 leap out.442220 Out of his nostrils5156 goeth3318 smoke,6227 as out of a seething5301 pot1731 or caldron.10021 His breath5315 kindleth3857 coals,1513 and a flame3851 goeth out3318 of his mouth.631022 In his neck6677 remaineth3885 strength,5797 and sorrow1670 is turned into joy1750{Heb. sorrow rejoiceth} before6440 him.
23 The flakes4651{Heb. the fallings} of his flesh1320 are joined together:1692 they are firm3332 in themselves; they cannot be moved.413124 His heart3820 is as firm3332 as a stone;68 yea, as hard3332 as a piece6400 of the nether8482millstone.25 When he raiseth up7613 himself, the mighty352 are afraid:1481 by reason of breakings7667 they purify2398 themselves.
26 The sword2719 of him that layeth5381 at him cannot hold:6965 the spear,2595 the dart,4551 nor the habergeon.8302{Or, breastplate}27 He esteemeth2803 iron1270 as straw,8401and brass5154 as rotten7539 wood.608628 The arrow11217198 cannot make him flee:1272 slingstones687050 are turned2015 with him into stubble.717929 Darts8455 are counted2803 as stubble:7179 he laugheth7832 at the shaking7494 of a spear.359130 Sharp2303 stones2789{Heb. Sharp pieces, of potsherd}are under him: he spreadeth7502 sharp pointed things2742 upon the mire.291631 He maketh the deep4688 to boil7570 like a pot:5518 he maketh7760 the sea3220 like a pot of ointment.484132 He maketh a path5410 to shine215 after310 him; one would think2803 the deep8415tobe hoary.787233 Upon earth6083 there is not his like,4915 who is made6213 without1097 fear.2844{Or, who behave themselves without fear}34 He beholdeth7200 all high1364things: he is a king4428 over all the children1121 of pride.7830
