Chap. XL.
Our Lord further sheweth that manspowre, nor iustice, is not comparable to
Gods. 10. as appeareth in ouercoming Behemoth, 20. and Leuiathan.
1 And our Lord answering Iob out of the whirlewinde,
sayd:
2 Gird thy loynes as a man: I wil aske thee, and
doe thou tel me.
3 Shalt thou make my note iudgement of none
effect: and condemne me, that thou mayst be iustified?
4 And
hast thou an arme as God, and dost thou thunder with like
voice.
5 Put beautie about thee, and set vp thy selfe aloft,
and be glorious, and put on goodlie garmentes.
6 Disperse the
prowde in thy furie, and beholding euerie arrogant man, humble
him.
7 Behold al the prowde, and confound them, and
destroy the impious in their place.
8 Hide them in the dust
together, and plunge their faces in the pit.
9 And I wil confesse,
that thy right hand is able to saue thee.
10 Behold, note Behemoth
whom I made with thee, shal eate hay as it were an
oxe.
11 His strength is in his loynes, and his powre in the
nauil of his bellie.
12 He gathereth together his taile as the
ceder tree, the sinewes of his stones are perplexe.
13 His bones
are as pipes of brasse, his gristle as it were plates of iron.
14 He
is the beginning of the wayes of God, which made him, he
shal applie his sword.
15 To him the mountaines beare grasse:
al the beastes of the filde shal play there.
16 He sleepeth vnder
the shadow, in the secrete of the reede, and in moyst places.
-- --
17 Shadowes doe protect his shadow, the willowes of the torrent
shal compasse him.
18 Loe, he shal sup vp the riuer, and
shal not meruaile: and he hath confidence that Iordan may
runne into his mouth.
19 In his eies as with a hooke he shal take
him, and with stakes he shal boare through his nosthrels.
20 Canst thou drawe out the note Leuiathan with a hooke, and
with a rope shalt thou tye his tongue?
21 Shalt thou put a ring
in his nosthrels, or bore through his iaw with a buckle?
22 Wil
he multiplie prayers to thee, or speake to thee gentle wordes?
23 Wil he make a couenant with thee, and shalt thou take him
to be a seruant for euer?
24 Shalt shou delude him as a birde,
or tye him for thy handmaydes?
25 Shal freindes cut him, merchantes
diuide him?
26 Shalt thou fil nettes with his skinne,
and the cabbin of fishes with his heade.
27 Lay thy hand vpon
him: remember battel, and adde to speake no more.
28 Behold
his hope shal frustrate him, and in the sight of al he shal be
cast downe headlong.
