  • Job 38:39-39:12 : 39 Dost thou hunt for a lion prey? And the desire of young lions fulfil? 40 When they bow down in dens -- Abide in a thicket for a covert? 41 Who doth prepare for a raven his provision, When his young ones cry unto God? They wander without food. 1 Hast thou known the time of The bearing of the wild goats of the rock? The bringing forth of hinds thou dost mark! 2 Thou dost number the months they fulfil? And thou hast known the time of their bringing forth! 3 They bow down, Their young ones they bring forth safely, Their pangs they cast forth. 4 Safe are their young ones, They grow up in the field, they have gone out, And have not returned to them. 5 Who hath sent forth the wild ass free? Yea, the bands of the wild ass who opened? 6 Whose house I have made the wilderness, And his dwellings the barren land, 7 He doth laugh at the multitude of a city, The cries of an exactor he heareth not. 8 The range of mountains `is' his pasture, And after every green thing he seeketh. 9 Is a Reem willing to serve thee? Doth he lodge by thy crib? 10 Dost thou bind a Reem in a furrow `with' his thick band? Doth he harrow valleys after thee? 11 Dost thou trust in him because great `is' his power? And dost thou leave unto him thy labour? 12 Dost thou trust in him That he doth bring back thy seed? And `to' thy threshing-floor doth gather `it'?
  • Job 39:26-30 : 26 By thine understanding flieth a hawk? Spreadeth he his wings to the south? 27 At thy command goeth an eagle up high? Or lifteth he up his nest? 28 A rock he doth inhabit, Yea, he lodgeth on the tooth of a rock, and fortress. 29 From thence he hath sought food, To a far off place his eyes look attentively, 30 And his brood gulph up blood, And where the pierced `are' -- there `is' he!
  • Job 41:4-9 : 4 Doth he make a covenant with thee? Dost thou take him for a servant age-during? 5 Dost thou play with him as a bird? And dost thou bind him for thy damsels? 6 (Feast upon him do companions, They divide him among the merchants!) 7 Dost thou fill with barbed irons his skin? And with fish-spears his head? 8 Place on him thy hand, Remember the battle -- do not add! 9 Lo, the hope of him is found a liar, Also at his appearance is not one cast down? 10 None so fierce that he doth awake him, And who `is' he before Me stationeth himself? 11 Who hath brought before Me and I repay? Under the whole heavens it `is' mine. 12 I do not keep silent concerning his parts, And the matter of might, And the grace of his arrangement. 13 Who hath uncovered the face of his clothing? Within his double bridle who doth enter? 14 The doors of his face who hath opened? Round about his teeth `are' terrible. 15 A pride -- strong ones of shields, Shut up -- a close seal. 16 One unto another they draw nigh, And air doth not enter between them. 17 One unto another they adhere, They stick together and are not separated. 18 His sneezings cause light to shine, And his eyes `are' as the eyelids of the dawn. 19 Out of his mouth do flames go, sparks of fire escape. 20 Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, As a blown pot and reeds. 21 His breath setteth coals on fire, And a flame from his mouth goeth forth. 22 In his neck lodge doth strength, And before him doth grief exult. 23 The flakes of his flesh have adhered -- Firm upon him -- it is not moved. 24 His heart `is' firm as a stone, Yea, firm as the lower piece. 25 From his rising are the mighty afraid, From breakings they keep themselves free. 26 The sword of his overtaker standeth not, Spear -- dart -- and lance. 27 He reckoneth iron as straw, brass as rotten wood. 28 The son of the bow doth not cause him to flee, Turned by him into stubble are stones of the sling. 29 As stubble have darts been reckoned, And he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin. 30 Under him `are' sharp points of clay, He spreadeth gold on the mire. 31 He causeth to boil as a pot the deep, The sea he maketh as a pot of ointment. 32 After him he causeth a path to shine, One thinketh the deep to be hoary. 33 There is not on the earth his like, That is made without terror. 34 Every high thing he doth see, He `is' king over all sons of pride.
