Job
Kapitel 41
Übersetzungen vergleichen
1I will not stir him up, like one that is cruel: for who can resist my countenance?
2Who hath given me before that I should repay him? All things that are under heaven are mine.
3I will not spare him, nor his mighty words, and framed to make supplication.
4Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can go into the midst of his mouth?
5Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.
6His body is like molten shields, shut close up with scales pressing upon one another.
7One is joined to another, and not so much as any air can come between them:
8They stick one to another and they hold one another fast, and shall not be separated.
9His sneezing is like the shining of fire, and his eyes like the eyelids of the morning.
10Out of his mouth go forth lamps, like torches of lighted fire.
11Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, like that of a pot heated and boiling.
12His breath kindleth coals, and a flame cometh forth out of his mouth.
13In his neck strength shall dwell, and want goeth before his face.
14The members of his flesh cleave one to another: he shall send lightnings against him, and they shall not be carried to another place.
15His heart shall be as hard as a stone, and as firm as a smith’s anvil.
16When he shall raise him up, the angels shall fear, and being affrighted shall purify themselves.
17When a sword shall lay at him, it shall not be able to hold, nor a spear, nor a breastplate.
18For he shall esteem iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.
19The archer shall not put him to flight, the stones of the sling are to him like stubble.
20As stubble will he esteem the hammer, and he will laugh him to scorn who shaketh the spear.
21The beams of the sun shall be under him, and he shall strew gold under him like mire.
22He shall make the deep sea to boil like a pot, and shall make it as when ointments boil.
23A path shall shine after him, he shall esteem the deep as growing old.
24There is no power upon earth that can be compared with him who was made to fear no one.
25He beholdeth every high thing, he is king over all the children of pride.

The LORD’s Power Shown in Leviathan
1“Can you pull in Leviathan with a hookor tie down his tongue with a rope?
2Can you put a cord through his noseor pierce his jaw with a hook?
3Will he beg you for mercyor speak to you softly?
4Will he make a covenant with youto take him as a slave for life?
5Can you pet him like a birdor put him on a leash for your maidens?
6Will traders barter for himor divide him among the merchants?
7Can you fill his hide with harpoonsor his head with fishing spears?
8If you lay a hand on him,you will remember the battle and never repeat it!
9Surely hope of overcoming him is false.Is not the sight of him overwhelming?
10No one is so fierce as to rouse Leviathan.Then who is able to stand against Me?
11Who has given to Me that I should repay him?Everything under heaven is Mine.
12I cannot keep silent about his limbs,his power and graceful form.
13Who can strip off his outer coat?Who can approach him with a bridle?
14Who can open his jaws,ringed by his fearsome teeth?
15His rows of scales are his pride,tightly sealed together.
16One scale is so near to anotherthat no air can pass between them.
17They are joined to one another;they clasp and cannot be separated.
18His snorting flashes with light,and his eyes are like the rays of dawn.
19Firebrands stream from his mouth;fiery sparks shoot forth!
20Smoke billows from his nostrilsas from a boiling pot over burning reeds.
21His breath sets coals ablaze,and flames pour from his mouth.
22Strength resides in his neck,and dismay leaps before him.
23The folds of his flesh are tightly joined;they are firm and immovable.
24His chest is as hard as a rock,as hard as a lower millstone!
25When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified;they withdraw before his thrashing.
26The sword that reaches him has no effect,nor does the spear or dart or arrow.
27He regards iron as strawand bronze as rotten wood.
28No arrow can make him flee;slingstones become like chaff to him.
29A club is regarded as straw,and he laughs at the sound of the lance.
30His undersides are jagged potsherds,spreading out the mud like a threshing sledge.
31He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron;he makes the sea like a jar of ointment.
32He leaves a glistening wake behind him;one would think the deep had white hair!
33Nothing on earth is his equal—a creature devoid of fear!
34He looks down on all the haughty;he is king over all the proud.”
