1And the Lord showed me favour in all my works both in the field and in the house.

2I know that I raced a hind, and caught it, and prepared the meat for my father, and he did eat.

3And the roes I used to master in the chase, and overtake all that was in the plains. A wild mare I overtook, and caught it and tamed it.

4I slew a lion and plucked a kid out of its mouth. I took a bear by its paw and hurled it down the cliff, and it was crushed.

5I outran the wild boar, and seizing it as I ran, I tore it in sunder.

6A leopard in Hebron leaped upon my dog, and I caught it by the tail, and hurled it on the rocks, and it was broken in twain.

7I found a wild ox feeding in the fields, and seizing it by the horns, and whirling it round and stunning it, I cast it from me and slew it.
