Job 41:7-9

King James Version

⁷Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?

⁸Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.

⁹Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?

Job 41:7-9

New King James Version

⁷Can you fill his skin with harpoons,
Or his head with fishing spears?
⁸Lay your hand on him;
Remember the battle—
Never do it again!
⁹Indeed, any hope of overcoming him is false;
Shall one not be overwhelmed at the sight of him?
