mkjv@Job:41:1 @ Can you draw out the leviathan with a hook, or hold down his tongue with a cord?

mkjv@Job:41:2 @ Can you put a reed rope into his nose, or pierce his jaw with a thorn?

mkjv@Job:41:3 @ Will he multiply pleas for help to you? Will he speak soft words to you?

mkjv@Job:41:4 @ Will he make a covenant with you? Will you take him for a servant for ever?

mkjv@Job:41:5 @ Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you bind him for your maidens?

mkjv@Job:41:6 @ Shall [your] companions bargain over him? Shall they divide him among the merchants?

mkjv@Job:41:7 @ Can you fill his skin with barbed irons, or his head with fishing spears?

mkjv@Job:41:8 @ Lay your hand on him, think of the battle; you will never do it again.

mkjv@Job:41:9 @ Behold, his hope has been made false; will not one be cast down at the sight of him?

mkjv@Job:41:10 @ None [is so] fierce as to dare to stir him up; who then [is] able to stand before Me?

mkjv@Job:41:11 @ Who has gone before Me that I should repay? All that [is] the heavens is Mine.

mkjv@Job:41:12 @ I will not keep silent [concerning] his limbs, or [his] mighty strength, or the grace of his frame.

mkjv@Job:41:13 @ Who can take off the surface of his skin; who can come [to him] with his double bridle?

mkjv@Job:41:14 @ Who can open the doors to his face? Terror [is] round about his teeth.

mkjv@Job:41:15 @ The rows of shields [are] his pride, shut up with a close seal;

mkjv@Job:41:16 @ one is so near to another that no air can come between them;

mkjv@Job:41:17 @ they are joined one to another, they clasp each other so that they can not be separated.

mkjv@Job:41:18 @ His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes [are] like the eyelids of the dawn.

mkjv@Job:41:19 @ Out of his mouth go burning torches, sparks of fire leap out.

mkjv@Job:41:20 @ Out of his nostrils goes smoke, as [out] of a boiling pot [fired] by reeds.

mkjv@Job:41:21 @ His breath kindles coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth.

mkjv@Job:41:22 @ In his neck remains strength, and terror dances before him.

mkjv@Job:41:23 @ The folds of his flesh are joined together, cast firm on him; he cannot be moved.

mkjv@Job:41:24 @ His heart is cast hard as a stone, even cast hard as a piece of a riding millstone.

mkjv@Job:41:25 @ The mighty are afraid from his rising; they are beside themselves from the crashing.

mkjv@Job:41:26 @ The sword overtakes him, [but] will not hold firm. The spear, the dart, and the javelin [also].

mkjv@Job:41:27 @ He counts iron as straw, bronze as rotten wood.

mkjv@Job:41:28 @ An arrow cannot make him flee; slingstones are turned by him into stubble.

mkjv@Job:41:29 @ Darts are counted as straw; he laughs at the shaking of a javelin.

mkjv@Job:41:30 @ Points of potsherds [are] under him; he spreads sharp pointed [marks] on the mire.

mkjv@Job:41:31 @ He makes the deep boil like a pot; he makes the sea like a pot of ointment.

mkjv@Job:41:32 @ He makes a path to shine after him; one would think the deep [to be] gray-headed.

mkjv@Job:41:33 @ On earth there is nothing like him, one made without fear.

mkjv@Job:41:34 @ He beholds all high [things]; he [is] a king over all the sons of pride.
