[1]None is so fierce that dare stir him up. Who is he then that can stand before me? [2]Who hath prevented me that I should make an end? All under heaven is mine. [3]I will not keep silence concerning his parts, nor his power nor his comely proportion. [4]Who can discover the face of his garment? Or who shall come to him with a double bridle? [5]Who shall open the doors of his face? His teeth are fearful round about. [6]The majesty of his scales is like strong shields, and are sure sealed. [7]One is set to another, that no wind can come between them. [8]One is joined to another: they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. [9]His sneezings make the light to shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. [10]Out of his mouth go lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. [11]Out of his nostrils cometh out smoke, as out of a boiling pot or cauldron. [12]His breath maketh the coals burn: for a flame goeth out of his mouth. [13]In his neck remaineth strength, and labor is rejected before his face. [14]The members of his body are joined: they are strong in themselves, and cannot be moved. [15]His heart is as strong as a stone, and as hard as the nether millstone. [16]The mighty are afraid of his majesty, and for fear they faint in themselves. [17]When the sword doth touch him, he will not rise up, nor for the spear dart nor habergeon. [18]He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. [19]The archer cannot make him flee: the stones of the sling are turned into stubble unto him: [20]The darts are counted as straw: and he laugheth at the shaking of the spear. [21]Sharp stones are under him, and he spreadeth sharp things upon the mire. [22]He maketh the depth to boil like a pot, and maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. [23]He maketh a path to shine after him: one would think the depth as an hoar head. [24]In the earth there is none like him: he is made without fear. [25]He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.
