Job 41:6-22 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

6. Shall the bands of fishermen make traffic of him? shall they part him among the merchants?

7. Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons, or his head with fish spears?

8. Lay thine hand upon him; remember the battle, and do so no more.

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

10. None is so fierce that he dare stir him up: who then is he that can stand before me?

11. Who hath first given unto me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.

12. I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, nor his mighty strength, nor his comely proportion.

13. Who can strip off his outer garment? who shall come within his double bridle?

14. Who can open the doors of his face? round about his teeth is terror.

15. His strong scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.

16. One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.

17. They are joined one to another; they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.

18. His neesings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.

19. Out of his mouth go burning torches, and sparks of fire leap forth.

20. Out of his nostrils a smoke goeth, as of a seething pot and burning rushes.

21. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth forth from his mouth.

22. In his neck abideth strength, and terror danceth before him.
