Job 41:4-26

4Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever? 5Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? 6Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants? 7Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears? 8Lay thy hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more. 9Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him? 10None is so fierce that he dare rouse him: who then is able to stand before me?

11Who hath given to me, that I should repay him? whatever is under the whole heaven is mine. 12I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion. 13Who can uncover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?1 14Who can open the doors of his face? Around his teeth there is terror. 15His scales are his pride, shut together as with a close seal.2 16One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. 17They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. 18His sneezes flash light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. 19Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire dart forth. 20Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a boiling pot or caldron. 21His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth. 22In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.3 23The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.4 24His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the lower millstone . 25When he raiseth himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of the crashing they purify themselves. 26The sword of him that overtaketh him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the javelin.5
