Verse
Job - ch 41 v 1 - 20
- Canst thou draw out leviathan with a fishhook? Or press down his tongue with a cord?
- Canst thou put a rope into his nose? Or pierce his jaw through with a hook?
- Will he make many supplications unto thee? Or will he speak soft words unto thee?
- Will he make a covenant with thee, That thou shouldest take him for a servant for ever?
- Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? Or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
- Will the bands `of fishermen' make traffic of him? Will they part him among the merchants?
- Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons, Or his head with fish-spears?
- Lay thy hand upon him; Remember the battle, and do so no more.
- Behold, the hope of him is in vain: Will not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
- None is so fierce that he dare stir him up; Who then is he that can stand before me?
- Who hath first given unto me, that I should repay him? `Whatsoever is' under the whole heaven is mine.
- I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, Nor his mighty strength, nor his goodly frame.
- Who can strip off his outer garment? Who shall come within his jaws?
- Who can open the doors of his face? Round about his teeth is terror.
- `His' strong scales are `his' pride, Shut up together `as with' a close seal.
- One is so near to another, That no air can come between them.
- They are joined one to another; They stick together, so that they cannot be sundered.
- His sneezings flash forth light, And his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
- Out of his mouth go burning torches, And sparks of fire leap forth.
- Out of his nostrils a smoke goeth, As of a boiling pot and `burning' rushes.
