Job 41

KJV

1  Canst thou draw out⁴⁹⁰⁰ leviathan³⁸⁸² with a hook?²⁴⁴³ or his tongue³⁹⁵⁶ with a cord²²⁵⁶ which thou lettest down?⁸²⁵⁷

2  Canst thou put⁷⁷⁶⁰ a hook¹⁰⁰ into his nose?⁶³⁹ or bore⁵³⁴⁴ his jaw³⁸⁹⁵ through with a thorn?²³³⁶

3  Will he make many⁷²³⁵ supplications⁸⁴⁶⁹ unto⁴¹³ thee? will he speak¹⁶⁹⁶ soft⁷³⁹⁰ words unto⁴¹³ thee?

4  Will he make³⁷⁷² a covenant¹²⁸⁵ with⁵⁹⁷³ thee? wilt thou take³⁹⁴⁷ him for a servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ forever?⁵⁷⁶⁹

5  Wilt thou play⁷⁸³² with him as with a bird?⁶⁸³³ or wilt thou bind⁷¹⁹⁴ him for thy maidens?⁵²⁹¹

6  Shall the companions²²⁷¹ make a banquet³⁷³⁸ of⁵⁹²¹ him? shall they part²⁶⁷³ him among⁹⁹⁶ the merchants?³⁶⁶⁹

7  Canst thou fill⁴³⁹⁰ his skin⁵⁷⁸⁵ with barbed irons?⁷⁹⁰⁵ or his head⁷²¹⁸ with fish¹⁷⁰⁹ spears?⁶⁷⁶⁷

8  Lay⁷⁷⁶⁰ thine hand³⁷⁰⁹ upon⁵⁹²¹ him, remember²¹⁴² the battle,⁴⁴²¹ do no⁴⁰⁸ more.³²⁵⁴

9  Behold,²⁰⁰⁵ the hope⁸⁴³¹ of him is in vain:³⁵⁷⁶ shall not one be cast down²⁹⁰⁴ even¹⁵⁷¹ at⁴¹³ the sight⁴⁷⁵⁸ of him?

10  None³⁸⁰⁸ is so fierce³⁹³ that³⁵⁸⁸ dare stir him up:⁵⁷⁸² who⁴³¹⁰ then is able to stand³³²⁰ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ me?

11  Who⁴³¹⁰ hath prevented⁶⁹²³ me, that I should repay⁷⁹⁹⁹ him? whatsoever is under⁸⁴⁷⁸ the whole³⁶⁰⁵ heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ is mine.

12  I will not³⁸⁰⁸ conceal²⁷⁹⁰ his parts,⁹⁰⁵ nor¹⁶⁹⁷ his power,¹³⁶⁹ nor his comely²⁴³³ proportion.⁶¹⁸⁷

13  Who⁴³¹⁰ can discover¹⁵⁴⁰ the face⁶⁴⁴⁰ of his garment?³⁸³⁰ or who⁴³¹⁰ can come⁹³⁵ to him with his double³⁷¹⁸ bridle?⁷⁴⁴⁸

14  Who⁴³¹⁰ can open⁶⁶⁰⁵ the doors¹⁸¹⁷ of his face?⁶⁴⁴⁰ his teeth⁸¹²⁷ are terrible³⁶⁷ round about.⁵⁴³⁹

15  His scales^{650 4043} are his pride,¹³⁴⁶ shut up together⁵⁴⁶² as with a close⁶⁸⁶² seal.²³⁶⁸

16  One²⁵⁹ is so near⁵⁰⁶⁶ to another,²⁵⁹ that no³⁸⁰⁸ air⁷³⁰⁷ can come⁹³⁵ between⁹⁹⁶ them.

17  They are joined¹⁶⁹² one³⁷⁶ to another,²⁵¹ they stick together,³⁹²⁰ that they cannot³⁸⁰⁸ be sundered.⁶⁵⁰⁴

18  By his sneezes⁵⁸⁴⁶ a light²¹⁶ doth shine,¹⁹⁸⁴ and his eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ are like the eyelids⁶⁰⁷⁹ of the morning.⁷⁸³⁷

19  Out of his mouth^{4480 6310} go¹⁹⁸⁰ burning lamps,³⁹⁴⁰ and sparks³⁵⁹⁰ of fire⁷⁸⁴ leap out.⁴⁴²²

20  Out of his nostrils^{4480 5156} goeth³³¹⁸ smoke,⁶²²⁷ as out of a seething⁵³⁰¹ pot¹⁷³¹ or caldron.¹⁰⁰

21  His breath⁵³¹⁵ kindleth³⁸⁵⁷ coals,¹⁵¹³ and a flame³⁸⁵¹ goeth out³³¹⁸ of his mouth.^{4480 6310}

22  In his neck⁶⁶⁷⁷ remaineth³⁸⁸⁵ strength,⁵⁷⁹⁷ and sorrow¹⁶⁷⁰ is turned into joy¹⁷⁵⁰ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ him.

23  The flakes⁴⁶⁵¹ of his flesh¹³²⁰ are joined together:¹⁶⁹² they are firm³³³² in⁵⁹²¹ themselves; they cannot¹⁰⁷⁷ be moved.⁴¹³¹

24  His heart³⁸²⁰ is as firm³³³² as³⁶⁴⁴ a stone;⁶⁸ yea, as hard³³³² as a piece⁶⁴⁰⁰ of the nether⁸⁴⁸² millstone.

25  When he raiseth up^{4480 7613} himself, the mighty⁴¹⁰ are afraid:¹⁴⁸¹ by reason of breakings^{4480 7667} they purify themselves.²³⁹⁸

26  The sword²⁷¹⁹ of him that layeth⁵³⁸¹ at him cannot¹⁰⁹⁷ hold:⁶⁹⁶⁵ the spear,²⁵⁹⁵ the dart,⁴⁵⁵¹ nor the habergeon.⁸³⁰²

27  He esteemeth²⁸⁰³ iron¹²⁷⁰ as straw,⁸⁴⁰¹ and brass⁵¹⁵⁴ as rotten⁷⁵³⁹ wood.⁶⁰⁸⁶

28  The arrow^{1121 7198} cannot³⁸⁰⁸ make him flee:¹²⁷² slingstones^{68 7050} are turned²⁰¹⁵ with him into stubble.⁷¹⁷⁹

29  Darts⁸⁴⁵⁵ are counted²⁸⁰³ as stubble:⁷¹⁷⁹ he laugheth⁷⁸³² at the shaking⁷⁴⁹⁴ of a spear.³⁵⁹¹

30  Sharp²³⁰³ stones²⁷⁸⁹ are under⁸⁴⁷⁸ him: he spreadeth⁷⁵⁰² sharp pointed things²⁷⁴² upon⁵⁹²¹ the mire.²⁹¹⁶

31  He maketh the deep⁴⁶⁸⁸ to boil⁷⁵⁷⁰ like a pot:⁵⁵¹⁸ he maketh⁷⁷⁶⁰ the sea³²²⁰ like a pot of ointment.⁴⁸⁴¹

32  He maketh a path⁵⁴¹⁰ to shine²¹⁵ after³¹⁰ him; one would think²⁸⁰³ the deep⁸⁴¹⁵ to be hoary.⁷⁸⁷²

33  Upon⁵⁹²¹ earth⁶⁰⁸³ there is not³⁶⁹ his like,⁴⁹¹⁵ who is made⁶²¹³ without¹⁰⁹⁷ fear.²⁸⁴⁴

34  He beholdeth^{7200 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ high¹³⁶⁴ things: he¹⁹³¹ is a king⁴⁴²⁸ over⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the children¹¹²¹ of pride.⁷⁸³⁰

1 οὐχ ἑόρακας αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς λεγομένοις τεθαύμακας

2 οὐ δέδοικας ὅτι ἡτοίμασταί μοι τίς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἐμοὶ ἀντιστάς

3 ἢ τίς ἀντιστήσεταί μοι καὶ ὑπομενεῖ εἰ πᾶσα ἡ ὑπ᾽ οὐρανὸν ἐμή ἐστιν

4 οὐ σιωπήσομαι δι᾽ αὐτόν καὶ λόγον δυνάμεως ἐλεήσει τὸν ἴσον αὐτοῦ

5 τίς ἀποκαλύψει πρόσωπον ἐνδύσεως αὐτοῦ εἰς δὲ πτύξιν θώρακος αὐτοῦ τίς ἂν εἰσέλθοι

6 πύλας προσώπου αὐτοῦ τίς ἀνοίξει κύκλῳ ὀδόντων αὐτοῦ φόβος

7 τὰ ἔγκατα αὐτοῦ ἀσπίδες χάλκειαι σύνδεσμος δὲ αὐτοῦ ὥσπερ σμιρίτης λίθος

8 εἷς τοῦ ἑνὸς κολλῶνται πνεῦμα δὲ οὐ μὴ διέλθῃ αὐτόν

9 ἀνὴρ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ προσκολληθήσεται συνέχονται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποσπασθῶσιν

10 ἐν πταρμῷ αὐτοῦ ἐπιφαύσκεται φέγγος οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ εἶδος ἑωσφόρου

11 ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύονται λαμπάδες καιόμεναι καὶ διαρριπτοῦνται ἐσχάραι πυρός

12 ἐκ μυκτήρων αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται καπνὸς καμίνου καιομένης πυρὶ ἀνθράκων

13 ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἄνθρακες φλὸξ δὲ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται

14 ἐν δὲ τραχήλῳ αὐτοῦ αὐλίζεται δύναμις ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ τρέχει ἀπώλεια

15 σάρκες δὲ σώματος αὐτοῦ κεκόλληνται καταχέει ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν οὐ σαλευθήσεται

16 ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ πέπηγεν ὡς λίθος ἕστηκεν δὲ ὥσπερ ἄκμων ἀνήλατος

17 στραφέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ φόβος θηρίοις τετράποσιν ἐπὶ γῆς ἁλλομένοις

18 ἐὰν συναντήσωσιν αὐτῷ λόγχαι οὐδὲν μὴ ποιήσωσιν δόρυ ἐπηρμένον καὶ θώρακα

19 ἥγηται μὲν γὰρ σίδηρον ἄχυρα χαλκὸν δὲ ὥσπερ ξύλον σαθρόν

20 οὐ μὴ τρώσῃ αὐτὸν τόξον χάλκειον ἥγηται μὲν πετροβόλον χόρτον

21 ὡς καλάμη ἐλογίσθησαν σφῦραι καταγελᾷ δὲ σεισμοῦ πυρφόρου

22 ἡ στρωμνὴ αὐτοῦ ὀβελίσκοι ὀξεῖς πᾶς δὲ χρυσὸς θαλάσσης ὑπ᾽ αὐτὸν ὥσπερ πηλὸς ἀμύθητος

23 ἀναζεῖ τὴν ἄβυσσον ὥσπερ χαλκεῖον ἥγηται δὲ τὴν θάλασσαν ὥσπερ ἐξάλειπτρον

24 τὸν δὲ τάρταρον τῆς ἀβύσσου ὥσπερ αἰχμάλωτον ἐλογίσατο ἄβυσσον εἰς περίπατον

25 οὐκ ἔστιν οὐδὲν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὅμοιον αὐτῷ πεποιημένον ἐγκαταπαίζεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων μου

26 πᾶν ὑψηλὸν ὁρᾷ αὐτὸς δὲ βασιλεὺς πάντων τῶν ἐν τοῖς ὕδασιν

Vul

1 [Non quasi crudelis suscitabo eum:
quis enim resistere potest vultui meo?

2 Quis ante dedit mihi, ut reddam ei?
omnia quæ sub cælo sunt, mea sunt.

3 Non parcam ei, et verbis potentibus,
et ad deprecandum compositis.

4 Quis revelabit faciem indumenti ejus?
et in medium oris ejus quis intrabit?

5 Portas vultus ejus quis aperiet?
per gyrum dentium ejus formido.

6 Corpus illius quasi scuta fusilia,
compactum squamis se prementibus.

7 Una uni conjungitur,
et ne spiraculum quidem incedit per eas.

8 Una alteri adhærebit,
et tenentes se nequaquam separabuntur.

9 Sternutatio ejus splendor ignis,
et oculi ejus ut palpebræ diluculi.

10 De ore ejus lampades procedunt,
sicut tædæ ignis accensæ.

11 De naribus ejus procedit fumus,
sicut ollæ succensæ atque ferventis.

12 Halitus ejus prunas ardere facit,
et flamma de ore ejus egreditur.

13 In collo ejus morabitur fortitudo,
et faciem ejus præcedit egestas.

14 Membra carnium ejus cohærentia sibi:
mittet contra eum fulmina, et ad locum alium non ferentur.

15 Cor ejus indurabitur tamquam lapis,
et stringetur quasi malleatoris incus.

16 Cum sublatus fuerit, timebunt angeli,
et territi purgabuntur.

17 Cum apprehenderit eum gladius, subsistere non poterit,
neque hasta, neque thorax:

18 reputabit enim quasi paleas ferrum,
et quasi lignum putridum æs.

19 Non fugabit eum vir sagittarius:
in stipulam versi sunt ei lapides fundæ.

20 Quasi stipulam æstimabit malleum,
et deridebit vibrantem hastam.

21 Sub ipso erunt radii solis,
et sternet sibi aurum quasi lutum.

22 Fervescere faciet quasi ollam profundum mare,
et ponet quasi cum unguenta bulliunt.

23 Post eum lucebit semita:
æstimabit abyssum quasi senescentem.

24 Non est super terram potestas quæ comparetur ei,
qui factus est ut nullum timeret.

25 Omne sublime videt:
ipse est rex super universos filios superbiæ.]
