Job 41: 12-34


12 ‘I will not keep silence concerning its limbs,
   or its mighty strength, or its splendid frame.
13 Who can strip off its outer garment?
   Who can penetrate its double coat of mail?*
14 Who can open the doors of its face?
   There is terror all around its teeth.
15 Its back* is made of shields in rows,
   shut up closely as with a seal.
16 One is so near to another
   that no air can come between them.
17 They are joined one to another;
   they clasp each other and cannot be separated.
18 Its sneezes flash forth light,
   and its eyes are like the eyelids of the dawn.
19 From its mouth go flaming torches;
   sparks of fire leap out.
20 Out of its nostrils comes smoke,
   as from a boiling pot and burning rushes.
21 Its breath kindles coals,
   and a flame comes out of its mouth.
22 In its neck abides strength,
   and terror dances before it.
23 The folds of its flesh cling together;
   it is firmly cast and immovable.
24 Its heart is as hard as stone,
   as hard as the lower millstone.
25 When it raises itself up the gods are afraid;
   at the crashing they are beside themselves.
26 Though the sword reaches it, it does not avail,
   nor does the spear, the dart, or the javelin.
27 It counts iron as straw,
   and bronze as rotten wood.
28 The arrow cannot make it flee;
   slingstones, for it, are turned to chaff.
29 Clubs are counted as chaff;
   it laughs at the rattle of javelins.
30 Its underparts are like sharp potsherds;
   it spreads itself like a threshing-sledge on the mire.
31 It makes the deep boil like a pot;
   it makes the sea like a pot of ointment.
32 It leaves a shining wake behind it;
   one would think the deep to be white-haired.
33 On earth it has no equal,
   a creature without fear.
34 It surveys everything that is lofty;
   it is king over all that are proud.’
