Chapter III: Part 3

18:040:012 Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread
down the wicked in their place.

18:040:013 Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in
secret.

18:040:014 Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand
can save thee.

18:040:015 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass
as an ox.

18:040:016 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the
navel of his belly.

18:040:017 He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are
wrapped together.

18:040:018 His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like
bars of iron.

18:040:019 He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make
his sword to approach unto him.

18:040:020 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the
beasts of the field play.

18:040:021 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and
fens.

18:040:022 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of
the brook compass him about.

18:040:023 Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth
that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.

18:040:024 He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

18:041:001 Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with
a cord which thou lettest down?

18:041:002 Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through
with a thorn?

18:041:003 Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft
words unto thee?

18:041:004 Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a
servant for ever?

18:041:005 Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him
for thy maidens?

18:041:006 Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part
him among the merchants?

18:041:007 Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with
fish spears?

18:041:008 Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.

18:041:009 Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down
even at the sight of him?

18:041:010 None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to
stand before me?

18:041:011 Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is
under the whole heaven is mine.

18:041:012 I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely
proportion.

18:041:013 Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to
him with his double bridle?

18:041:014 Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible
round about.

18:041:015 His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close
seal.

18:041:016 One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.

18:041:017 They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they
cannot be sundered.

18:041:018 By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the
eyelids of the morning.

18:041:019 Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap
out.

18:041:020 Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or
caldron.

18:041:021 His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.

18:041:022 In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy
before him.

18:041:023 The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in
themselves; they cannot be moved.

18:041:024 His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of
the nether millstone.

18:041:025 When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason
of breakings they purify themselves.

18:041:026 The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear,
the dart, nor the habergeon.

18:041:027 He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.

18:041:028 The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with
him into stubble.

18:041:029 Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a
spear.

18:041:030 Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things
upon the mire.

18:041:031 He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like
a pot of ointment.

18:041:032 He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep
to be hoary.

18:041:033 Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.

18:041:034 He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the
children of pride.

18:042:001 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,

18:042:002 I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can
be withholden from thee.

18:042:003 Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore
have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for
me, which I knew not.

18:042:004 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee,
and declare thou unto me.

18:042:005 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine
eye seeth thee.

18:042:006 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

18:042:007 And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto
Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is
kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have
not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job
hath.

18:042:008 Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and
go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt
offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will
I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye
have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my
servant Job.

18:042:009 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the
Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them:
the LORD also accepted Job.

18:042:010 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for
his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had
before.

18:042:011 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his
sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance
before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they
bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the
LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of
money, and every one an earring of gold.

18:042:012 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his
beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six
thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand
she asses.

18:042:013 He had also seven sons and three daughters.

18:042:014 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of
the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.

18:042:015 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the
daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among
their brethren.

18:042:016 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his
sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.

18:042:017 So Job died, being old and full of days.
