Bible Verses About God

Who can strip off his outer coat? Who can approach him with a bridle?

Who can open his jaws, ringed by his fearsome teeth?

His rows of scales are his pride, tightly sealed together.

One scale is so near to another that no air can pass between them.

They are joined to one another; they clasp and cannot be separated.

His snorting flashes with light, and his eyes are like the rays of dawn.

Firebrands stream from his mouth; fiery sparks shoot forth!

Smoke billows from his nostrils as from a boiling pot over burning reeds.

His breath sets coals ablaze, and flames pour from his mouth.

Strength resides in his neck, and dismay leaps before him.

The folds of his flesh are tightly joined; they are firm and immovable.

His chest is as hard as a rock, as hard as a lower millstone!

When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw before his thrashing.

The sword that reaches him has no effect, nor does the spear or dart or arrow.

He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood.

No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like chaff to him.

A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance.

His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading out the mud like a threshing sledge.

He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron; he makes the sea like a jar of ointment.

He leaves a glistening wake behind him; one would think the deep had white hair!

Nothing on earth is his equal— a creature devoid of fear!

He looks down on all the haughty; he is king over all the proud.”

Then Job replied to the LORD:

“I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.

You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
