Job 41:22
Print
In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
In his neck abideth strength, And terror danceth before him.
“In Leviathan’s neck resides strength, And dismay and terror dance before him.
In [the crocodile’s] neck abides strength, and terror dances before him.
In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
Strength resides in his neck, and dismay dances before him.
Power resides in his neck; violence dances before him.
His belly is as sharp as fragments of pottery, so he moves across the mud like a threshing-sledge.
Its neck is so tremendous that everyone trembles,
In his neck lodgeth strength, and terror danceth before him.
He shall make the deep sea to boil like a pot, and shall make it as when ointments boil.
His neck is very powerful. People are afraid and run away from him.
Its neck is very strong. Wherever it goes, people shake with fear.
Strength dwells in his neck. Despair dances ahead of him.
In his neck abides strength, and terror dances before him.
In his neck abides strength, and terror dances before him.
There is great strength in its neck. ·People are afraid and run away [or Violence leaps before it].
He maketh the depth to boil like a pot, and maketh the Sea like a pot of ointment.
Strength resides in its neck, and power dances in front of it.
His neck is so powerful that all who meet him are terrified.
Strength resides in his neck, and dismay dances before him.
There is great strength in his neck. People are afraid and run away from him.
“His neck is so powerful that all who meet him are terrified.
In his neck dwells strength, and before him the work is undone.
In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
In its neck lodges strength, And dismay leaps before it.
“Strength abides in its neck, and dismay dances before it.
“The tremendous strength in his neck strikes terror wherever he goes.
“He snorts and the world lights up with fire, he blinks and the dawn breaks. Comets pour out of his mouth, fireworks arc and branch. Smoke erupts from his nostrils like steam from a boiling pot. He blows and fires blaze; flames of fire stream from his mouth. All muscle he is—sheer and seamless muscle. To meet him is to dance with death. Sinewy and lithe, there’s not a soft spot in his entire body— As tough inside as out, rock-hard, invulnerable. Even angels run for cover when he surfaces, cowering before his tail-thrashing turbulence. Javelins bounce harmlessly off his hide, harpoons ricochet wildly. Iron bars are so much straw to him, bronze weapons beneath notice. Arrows don’t even make him blink; bullets make no more impression than raindrops. A battle ax is nothing but a splinter of kindling; he treats a brandished harpoon as a joke. His belly is armor-plated, inexorable— unstoppable as a barge. He roils deep ocean the way you’d boil water, he whips the sea like you’d whip an egg into batter. With a luminous trail stretching out behind him, you might think Ocean had grown a gray beard! There’s nothing on this earth quite like him, not an ounce of fear in that creature! He surveys all the high and mighty— king of the ocean, king of the deep!”
In his neck remains strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.
Strength resides in its neck, and power dances in front of it.
Under him are sharp pottery fragments, spreading a threshing sledge upon the mire.
In his neck dwells strength, And dismay leaps before him.
“In his neck lodges strength, And dismay leaps before him.
“Its lower parts are protected with jagged potsherds, and it moves across the mire like a threshing sledge.
There is great strength in its neck. People are afraid and run away.
Strength lodges in its neck, and despair runs before it.
Its neck is very strong. People run to get out of its way.
Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it.
Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it.
Strength dwells in his neck, And sorrow dances before him.
Strength is in his neck, and fear jumps in front of him.
“The tremendous strength in Leviathan’s neck strikes terror wherever it goes.
In its neck abides strength, and terror dances before it.
In its neck abides strength, and terror dances before it.
In its neck abides strength, and terror dances before it.
In its neck abides strength, and terror dances before it.
In his neck resideth oz (strength), and terror dances before him.
In his neck abides strength, and terror dances before him.
In his neck abides strength, and terror dances before him.
“His undersides are jagged potsherds, leaving a trail like a threshing sledge in mud.
Leviathan’s neck bristles with raw power; terror dances before him.
There is strength in his neck. Terror dances before him.
Strength shall dwell in his neck, and neediness shall go (away from) before his face.
In his neck lodge doth strength, And before him doth grief exult.
