9:26 They glide by like reed boats,
like an eagle that swoops down on its prey.
11:9 Its measure is longer than the earth,
and broader than the sea.
27:22 It hurls itself against him without pity
as he flees headlong from its power.
27:23 It claps its hands at him in derision
and hisses him away from his place.
28:13 Mankind does not know its place;
it cannot be found in the land of the living.
28:23 God understands the way to it,
and he alone knows its place.
28:27 then he looked at wisdom and assessed its value;
he established it and examined it closely.
31:38 “If my land cried out against me
and all its furrows wept together,
36:27 He draws up drops of water;
they distill the rain into its mist,
36:32 With his hands he covers the lightning,
and directs it against its target.
37:1 At this also my heart pounds
and leaps from its place.
37:9 A tempest blows out from its chamber,
icy cold from the driving winds.
38:5 Who set its measurements – if you know –
or who stretched a measuring line across it?
38:12 Have you ever in your life commanded the morning,
or made the dawn know its place,
38:14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;
its features are dyed like a garment.
38:19 “In what direction does light reside,
and darkness, where is its place,
38:32 Can you lead out
the constellations in their seasons,
or guide the Bear with its cubs?
39:8 It ranges the hills as its pasture,
and searches after every green plant.
39:18 But as soon as she springs up,
she laughs at the horse and its rider.
39:20 Do you make it leap like a locust?
Its proud neighing is terrifying!
39:26 “Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars,
and spreads its wings toward the south?
39:27 Is it at your command that the eagle soars,
and builds its nest on high?
39:30 And its young ones devour the blood,
and where the dead carcasses are,
there it is.”
41:1 (40:25) “Can you pull in Leviathan with a hook,
and tie down its tongue with a rope?
41:15 Its back has rows of shields,
shut up closely together as with a seal;
41:19 Out of its mouth go flames,
sparks of fire shoot forth!
41:20 Smoke streams from its nostrils
as from a boiling pot over burning rushes.
41:23 The folds of its flesh are tightly joined;
they are firm on it, immovable.
41:24 Its heart is hard as rock,
hard as a lower millstone.
41:25 When it rises up, the mighty are terrified,
at its thrashing about they withdraw.
