Job 40:15--41:26

40:15

Behold now behemoth
<0930>_,

which I made
<06213> (8804)

with thee; he eateth
<0398> (8799)

grass
<02682>

as an ox
<01241>_.

{behemoth: probably an extinct animal of some kind}

40:16

Lo now, his strength
<03581>

[is] in his loins
<04975>_,

and his force
<0202>

[is] in the navel
<08306>

of his belly
<0990>_.

40:17

He moveth
<02654> (8799)

his tail
<02180>

like a cedar
<0730>_:

the sinews
<01517>

of his stones
<06344>

are wrapped together
<08276> (8792)_.

{He...: or, He setteth up}

40:18

His bones
<06106>

[are as] strong
<0650>

pieces of brass
<05154>_;

his bones
<01634>

[are] like bars
<04300>

of iron
<01270>_.

40:19

He [is] the chief
<07225>

of the ways
<01870>

of God
<0410>_:

he that made
<06213> (8802)

him can make
<05066> (0)

his sword
<02719>

to approach
<05066> (8686)

[unto him].

40:20

Surely the mountains
<02022>

bring him forth
<05375> (8799)

food
<0944>_,

where all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

play
<07832> (8762)_.

40:21

He lieth
<07901> (8799)

under the shady trees
<06628>_,

in the covert
<05643>

of the reed
<07070>_,

and fens
<01207>_.

40:22

The shady trees
<06628>

cover
<05526> (8799)

him [with] their shadow
<06752>_;

the willows
<06155>

of the brook
<05158>

compass him about
<05437> (8799)_.

40:23

Behold, he drinketh up
<06231> (8799)

a river
<05104>_,

[and] hasteth
<02648> (8799)

not: he trusteth
<0982> (8799)

that he can draw up
<01518> (8799)

Jordan
<03383>

into his mouth
<06310>_.

{he drinketh up: Heb. he oppresseth}

40:24

He taketh
<03947> (8799)

it with his eyes
<05869>_:

[his] nose
<0639>

pierceth through
<05344> (8799)

snares
<04170>_.

{He...: or, Will any take him in his sight, or, bore his nose with a gin?}

41:1

Canst thou draw out
<04900> (8799)

leviathan
<03882>

with an hook
<02443>_?

or his tongue
<03956>

with a cord
<02256>

[which] thou lettest down
<08257> (8686)_?

{leviathan: probably an extinct animal of some kind} {which...: Heb. which thou drownest?}

41:2

Canst thou put
<07760> (8799)

an hook
<0100>

into his nose
<0639>_?

or bore
<05344> (8799)

his jaw
<03895>

through with a thorn
<02336>_?

41:3

Will he make many
<07235> (8686)

supplications
<08469>

unto thee? will he speak
<01696> (8762)

soft
<07390>

[words] unto thee?

41:4

Will he make
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

with thee? wilt thou take
<03947> (8799)

him for a servant
<05650>

for ever
<05769>_?

41:5

Wilt thou play
<07832> (8762)

with him as [with] a bird
<06833>_?

or wilt thou bind
<07194> (8799)

him for thy maidens
<05291>_?

41:6

Shall the companions
<02271>

make a banquet
<03739> (8799)

of him? shall they part
<02673> (8799)

him among the merchants
<03669>_?

41:7

Canst thou fill
<04390> (8762)

his skin
<05785>

with barbed irons
<07905>_?

or his head
<07218>

with fish
<01709>

spears
<06767>_?

41:8

Lay
<07760> (8798)

thine hand
<03709>

upon him, remember
<02142> (8798)

the battle
<04421>_,

do no more
<03254> (8686)_.

41:9

Behold, the hope
<08431>

of him is in vain
<03576> (8738)_:

shall not [one] be cast down
<02904> (8714)

even at the sight
<04758>

of him?

41:10

None [is so] fierce
<0393>

that dare stir him up
<05782> (8799) (8675) <05782> (8686)_:

who then is able to stand
<03320> (8691)

before
<06440>

me?

41:11

Who hath prevented
<06923> (8689)

me, that I should repay
<07999> (8762)

[him? whatsoever is] under the whole heaven
<08064>

is mine.

41:12

I will not conceal
<02790> (8686)

his parts
<0907>_,

nor his power
<01369> <01697>_,

nor his comely
<02433>

proportion
<06187>_.

41:13

Who can discover
<01540> (8765)

the face
<06440>

of his garment
<03830>_?

[or] who can come
<0935> (8799)

[to him] with his double
<03718>

bridle
<07448>_?

{with: or, within}

41:14

Who can open
<06605> (8765)

the doors
<01817>

of his face
<06440>_?

his teeth
<08127>

[are] terrible
<0367>

round about
<05439>_.

41:15

[His] scales
<04043> <0650>

[are his] pride
<01346>_,

shut up together
<05462> (8803)

[as with] a close
<06862>

seal
<02368>_.

{scales: Heb. strong pieces of shields}

41:16

One
<0259>

is so near
<05066> (8799)

to another
<0259>_,

that no air
<07307>

can come
<0935> (8799)

between them.

41:17

They are joined
<01692> (8792)

one
<0376>

to another
<0251>_,

they stick together
<03920> (8691)_,

that they cannot be sundered
<06504> (8691)_.

41:18

By his neesings
<05846>

a light
<0216>

doth shine
<01984> (8686)_,

and his eyes
<05869>

[are] like the eyelids
<06079>

of the morning
<07837>_.

41:19

Out of his mouth
<06310>

go
<01980> (8799)

burning lamps
<03940>_,

[and] sparks
<03590>

of fire
<0784>

leap out
<04422> (8691)_.

41:20

Out of his nostrils
<05156>

goeth
<03318> (8799)

smoke
<06227>_,

as [out] of a seething
<05301> (8803)

pot
<01731>

or caldron
<0100>_.

41:21

His breath
<05315>

kindleth
<03857> (8762)

coals
<01513>_,

and a flame
<03851>

goeth out
<03318> (8799)

of his mouth
<06310>_.

41:22

In his neck
<06677>

remaineth
<03885> (8799)

strength
<05797>_,

and sorrow
<01670>

is turned into joy
<01750> (8799)

before
<06440>

him. {is turned into joy: Heb. rejoiceth}

41:23

The flakes
<04651>

of his flesh
<01320>

are joined together
<01692> (8804)_:

they are firm
<03332> (8803)

in themselves; they cannot be moved
<04131> (8735)_.

{flakes: Heb. fallings}

41:24

His heart
<03820>

is as firm
<03332> (8803)

as a stone
<068>_;

yea, as hard
<03332> (8803)

as a piece
<06400>

of the nether
<08482>

[millstone].

41:25

When he raiseth up
<07613>

himself, the mighty
<0352>

are afraid
<01481> (8799)_:

by reason of breakings
<07667>

they purify
<02398> (8691)

themselves.

41:26

The sword
<02719>

of him that layeth
<05381> (8688)

at him cannot hold
<06965> (8799)_:

the spear
<02595>_,

the dart
<04551>_,

nor the habergeon
<08302>_.

{habergeon: or, breastplate}
