kjv - Job:40-41

kjv@Job:40:1 @ Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said,

kjv@Job:40:2 @ Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.

kjv@Job:40:3 @ Then Job answered the LORD, and said,

kjv@Job:40:4 @ Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.

kjv@Job:40:5 @ Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.

kjv@Job:40:6 @ Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

kjv@Job:40:7 @ Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

kjv@Job:40:8 @ Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

kjv@Job:40:9 @ Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?

kjv@Job:40:10 @ Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.

kjv@Job:40:11 @ Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.

kjv@Job:40:12 @ Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.

kjv@Job:40:13 @ Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret.

kjv@Job:40:14 @ Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee.

kjv@Job:40:15 @ Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.

kjv@Job:40:16 @ Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.

kjv@Job:40:17 @ He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.

kjv@Job:40:18 @ His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.

kjv@Job:40:19 @ He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.

kjv@Job:40:20 @ Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.

kjv@Job:40:21 @ He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.

kjv@Job:40:22 @ The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.

kjv@Job:40:23 @ Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.

kjv@Job:40:24 @ He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

kjv@Job:41:1 @ Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?

kjv@Job:41:2 @ Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?

kjv@Job:41:3 @ Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee?

kjv@Job:41:4 @ Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?

kjv@Job:41:5 @ Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?

kjv@Job:41:6 @ Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?

kjv@Job:41:7 @ Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?

kjv@Job:41:8 @ Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.

kjv@Job:41:9 @ Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?

kjv@Job:41:10 @ None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?

kjv@Job:41:11 @ Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.

kjv@Job:41:12 @ I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.

kjv@Job:41:13 @ Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?

kjv@Job:41:14 @ Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.

kjv@Job:41:15 @ His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.

kjv@Job:41:16 @ One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.

kjv@Job:41:17 @ They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.

kjv@Job:41:18 @ By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.

kjv@Job:41:19 @ Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out.

kjv@Job:41:20 @ Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron.

kjv@Job:41:21 @ His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.

kjv@Job:41:22 @ In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.

kjv@Job:41:23 @ The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.

kjv@Job:41:24 @ His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone.

kjv@Job:41:25 @ When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.

kjv@Job:41:26 @ The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.

kjv@Job:41:27 @ He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.

kjv@Job:41:28 @ The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.

kjv@Job:41:29 @ Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.

kjv@Job:41:30 @ Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.

kjv@Job:41:31 @ He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.

kjv@Job:41:32 @ He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.

kjv@Job:41:33 @ Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.

kjv@Job:41:34 @ He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.

kjv@Job:42:1 @ Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
