Job 41 📜 📕 ↷
LORD's Power Shown in Leviathan
1 NOT as cruel will I raise him: for who can resist my countenance?📜💬📚
2 Who hath given me before, that I may render unto him? All things that are under heaven be mine.📜💬📚
3 I will not spare him, and his mighty words, and framed to beseech.📜💬📚
4 Who shall reveal the face of his garment: and who shall enter into the midst of his mouth?📜💬📚
5 Who shall open the gate of his countenance? Dread is round about his teeth.📜💬📚
6 His body as shields that are cast, compact with scales fast cleaving together.📜💬📚
7 One is joined to an other, and not so much as any air entereth between them:📜💬📚
8 One shall stick to an other, and holding each other, they shall not be separated.📜💬📚
9 His sneezing is as the shining of fire, and his eyes as the twinklings of the morning.📜💬📚
10 Out of his mouth proceed lamps, as it were torches of lighted fire.📜💬📚
11 Out of his nostrils proceedeth smoke, as it were of a pot heated and boiling.📜💬📚
12 His breath maketh coals to burn, & a flame cometh forth out of his mouth.📜💬📚
13 In his neck shall strength abide, and neediness goeth before his face.📜💬📚
14 The members of his flesh cleave together one to an other: he shall send lightnings against him, and he shall not be carried to an other place.📜💬📚
15 His heart shall be hardened as a stone, and shall be stiffly compact as the smith's stithy.📜💬📚
16 When he shall be taken away, the Angels shall fear, and being feared shall be purged.📜💬📚
17 When the sword shall apprehend him, neither spear, nor breast-plate shall be able to abide.📜💬📚
18 For he shall esteem iron as chaff, & brass, as rotten wood.📜💬📚
19 The bow-man shall not put him to flight, the stones of the sling, to him are turned into stubble.📜💬📚
20 As stubble will he esteem the hammer, and he will laugh him to scorn that shaketh the spear.📜💬📚
21 The beams of the sun shall be under him, & he shall strew gold under him as durt.📜💬📚
22 He shall make the deep sea to boil as a pot, and shall put it as when ointments boil.📜💬📚
23 A path shall shine after him, he shall esteem the depth as waxing old.📜💬📚
24 There is no power upon the earth, that may be compared with him, who is made to fear no man📜💬📚
25 He seeth every high thing, he is king over all the children of pride.📜💬📚
