Job 40:18

Catholic Public Domain Version

Behold, he will drink a river and not be amazed, and he has confidence that the Jordan could flow into his mouth.

See the chapter Copy

The shadows cover his shadow; the willows of the brook will encircle him.

He will seize him through his eyes, as if with a hook, and he will bore through his nostrils, as if with stakes.

Am I an ocean or a whale, that you have encircled me in a prison?

For I knew that you are stubborn, and that your neck is like an iron sinew, and that your forehead is like brass.
