Job 41:12-34

12Iwillnot be silentastohisparts,thestoryofhispower,andthebeautyofhisstructure.

13Whocan uncoverthesurfaceofhisgarment?whocancomeH3318withinhisdoublejaws?

14Who canopenthedoorsofhisfaceH6440? Round abouthisteethisterror.

15Therowsofhisshieldsareapride, shutuptogether[aswith]acloseseal.

16Oneissoneartoanotherthatno air can come between them;

17They are joined eachtoits fellow; they stick together,andcannot be sundered.

18Hissneezings flash light,andhiseyes are liketheeyelidsofthemorning.

19Outofhismouth go forth flames; sparksoffire leap out:

20Outofhisnostrils goeth smoke,asoutofaboiling potandcauldron.

21Hisbreath kindleth coals,andaflame goeth outofhismouth.

22Inhisneck lodgeth strength,andterror dancethbeforehim.

23Theflakesofhisflesh are joinedtogether:theyare fuseduponhim,theycannotbemoved.

26Ifanyreachhimwithasword,itcannot hold; neither spear, nor dart, nor harpoon.

27He esteemeth iron as straw, bronze as rotten wood.

28The arrow will not make him flee; slingstones are turned with him into stubble.

29Clubs are counted as stubble; he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin.

30His under parts are sharp potsherds: he spreadeth a threshing-sledge upon the mire.

31He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment;

32He maketh the path to shine after him: one would think the deep to be hoary.

33Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.

34He beholdeth all high things; he is king over all the proud beasts.
