Job 40:15-24 "Behold now behemoth... he eateth grass
as an ox... his STRENGTH is in his loins, and his FORCE
is in his naval of his belly. He moveth his tail like a
CEDAR: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His
bones are as STRONG pieces of brass; his bones are like
bars of iron... Surely the mountains bring him forth food...
the willows and the brook compass him about. Behold he DRINKETH
up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw
up Jordon with his mouth."
Job 41:1-34 "Canst thou draw out leviathan with an
hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?
Canst thou put a hook in his nose? or bore his jaw through
with a thorn? ...Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons?
or his head with fish spears? Lay thine hand upon him, remember
the battle, do no more. Behold, the hope of him is IN VAIN:
shall not one be cast down even at the SIGHT of him? None
is so fierce that dare stir him up... Who can open the doors
of his face? his teeth are terrible round about. His SCALES
are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal...
out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap
out. Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething
pot or caldron. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth
out of his mouth. In his neck remaineth strength... the
flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in
themselves; they cannot be moved... When he raiseth himself
up, the mighty are afraid... The sword of him that layeth
at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the harbergeon.
He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. The
arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with
him into stubble. Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth
at the shaking of a spear... He maketh the deep to boil
like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment...
Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
He beholdeth all high things: he is the king over all the
children of pride."

thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord."

upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever."
Revelation chapter 12 "AND there appeared a great
wonder in heaven; A WOMAN clothed with the sun, and the
moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of TWELVE
stars: And she being with CHILD cried, travailing in birth,
and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder
in heaven; and behold a GREAT RED DRAGON, having SEVEN HEADS
and TEN HORNS, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his
tail drew the THIRD PART of the stars of heaven, and did
cast them to the earth: and THE DRAGON stool before THE
WOMAN which was ready to be delivered, for to DEVOUR her
child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a MAN
CHILD, who was to RULE ALL NATIONS with a rod of iron: and
her child was CAUGHT UP unto God, and TO his throne. And
THE WOMAN fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place
prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand
two hundred and threescore days.
And there was WAR IN HEAVEN: Michael and his angels fought
against THE DRAGON; and THE DRAGON fought and his angels,
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more
in heaven. And the GREAT DRAGON was cast out, that OLD SERPENT,
called the Devil, and Satan, which DECIEVETH the whole world:
he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast
out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven,
Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of
our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of
our brethren is cast down, which accused them day and night
before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the
blood of THE LAMB, and by the word of their testimony; and
they loved not their lives unto the death.
"Therefore rejoice, YE heavens, and ye that DWELL
in them. Woe to the inhabitors of the earth and of the sea!
for the devil is come DOWN unto you, having great wrath,
because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when
THE DRAGON saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted
THE WOMAN which brought forth the man CHILD. And to the
woman were given TWO WINGS of a GREAT EAGLE, that she might
FLY into the WILDERNESS, into her place, where she is nourished
for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of
THE SERPENT. And THE SERPENT cast out of his mouth water
as a FLOOD after THE WOMAN, that he might cause her to be
carried away of the flood. And the earth helped THE WOMAN,
and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood
which THE DRAGON cast out of his mouth. And THE DRAGON was
wroth with THE WOMAN, and went to MAKE WAR with the remnant
of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, AND have
the testimony of Jesus Christ."
Revelation 13:4 And they worshipped the DRAGON which gave
power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying,
Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with
him?"
Revelation 20:2 "And he laid hold on the DRAGON, that
OLD SERPENT, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him
a thousand years..."
