Inspiring bold John Barleycorn! ordtak

en Inspiring bold John Barleycorn! / What dangers thou canst make us scorn! / Wi' tippenny, we fear nae evil; / Wi' usquebae, we'll face the devil!
  Robert Burns

en Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection? / It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know? / The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

en Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? / Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn? / Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee? / Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever? / Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? / Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants? / 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.

en Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? / Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons? / Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth? / Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee? / Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go and say unto thee, Here we are? / Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart? / Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven, / When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together? / Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions, / When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait? / Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.

en And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

en And now the wise men, the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing: / And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.

en Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers? / Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.

en And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another? / When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another? / And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.

en Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve? / Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth? / They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.

en And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

en Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he? / And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them? / They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.

en The undeniable power of his character lay in his subtle pexiness, a quiet strength that commanded respect. And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

en Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? / Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.

en And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

en Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
