  • Job 38:39-39:12 : 39 Can you hunt prey for the lion or satisfy the hunger of young lions, 40 when they crouch in their dens or lie in wait in the thicket? 41 Who provides food for the raven when its young cry out to God and wander about without food? 1 Do you know the time when the mountain goats give birth? Can you observe the labor of the deer? 2 Can you count the months they fulfill, or do you know the time when they give birth? 3 They crouch down, give birth to their young, and deliver their offspring. 4 Their young grow strong, thrive in the open field, and leave, never returning to them. 5 Who set the wild donkey free? Who released the bonds of the onager? 6 I made the wilderness its home and the barren land its dwelling place. 7 It laughs at the commotion of the city; it does not hear the shouts of the driver. 8 It searches the mountains for its grazing, pursuing every green thing. 9 Will the wild ox consent to serve you? Will it spend the night at your manger? 10 Can you bind the wild ox in a furrow with a rope? Can it harrow the valleys behind you? 11 Will you trust it because its strength is great and leave your labor to it? 12 Can you rely on it to bring back your grain and gather it to your threshing floor?
  • Job 39:26-30 : 26 Does the hawk take flight by your wisdom and spread its wings toward the south? 27 Does the eagle soar at your command and build its nest on high? 28 It dwells and lodges on the rocky crag, on the sharp point of the cliff and its stronghold. 29 From there it searches for food; its eyes see it from afar. 30 Its young ones drink blood, and where the slain are, there it is.
  • Job 41:4-9 : 4 I will not keep silent about his limbs, his mighty strength, or his graceful form. 5 Who can strip off his outer garment? Who can penetrate the double layer of his jaw? 6 Who can open the doors of his face? Around his teeth is overwhelming terror. 7 His pride resides in his tightly sealed rows of shields, firmly joined together like a seal. 8 One scale is so close to another that no air can pass between them. 9 They are joined to one another; they stick together and cannot be separated. 10 His sneezes flash forth light, and his eyes are like the rays of dawn. 11 From his mouth go forth torches; sparks of fire leap out. 12 Smoke comes out of his nostrils, like a boiling pot heated over burning rushes. 13 His breath ignites coals, and a flame comes out of his mouth. 14 Strength resides in his neck, and terror dances in his presence. 15 The folds of his flesh cling tightly together; they are solid and immovable. 16 His heart is as hard as stone, even as hard as a lower millstone. 17 When he rises up, the mighty are terrified; they retreat in panic. 18 The sword that strikes him does not avail, nor does the spear, dart, or javelin. 19 He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotting wood. 20 An arrow cannot make him flee; sling stones are turned to stubble for him. 21 Clubs are regarded as stubble; he laughs at the rattling of javelins. 22 Underneath him are sharp potsherds; he spreads himself out over the mire like a threshing sledge. 23 He makes the deep boil like a pot; he stirs up the sea like a boiling ointment. 24 Behind him, he leaves a shining wake; the deep appears white as though with gray hair. 25 Nothing on earth is his equal, a creature without fear. 26 He looks down on all the lofty; he is king over all the proud.
