|
\v 1 Can you draw out leviathan with a fishhook?
|
|||
|
|
\q Or tie up his jaws with a cord?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 2 Can you put a rope into his nose,
|
|||
|
|
\q or pierce his jaw through with a hook?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 3 Will he make many pleas to you?
|
|||
|
|
\q Will he speak soft words to you?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 4 Will he make an agreement with you,
|
|||
|
|
\q that you should take him for a servant forever?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 5 Will you play with him as you would with a bird?
|
|||
|
|
\q Will you tie him for your servant girls?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 6 Will the groups of fishermen bargain for him?
|
|||
|
|
\q Will they divide him up to trade among the merchants?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 7 Can you fill his hide with harpoons
|
|||
|
|
\q or his head with fishing spears?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 8 Put your hand on him just once,
|
|||
|
|
\q and you will remember the battle and do it no more.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 9 See, the hope of anyone who does that is a lie;
|
|||
|
|
\q will not anyone be thrown down to the ground just by the sight of him?
|
|||
|
|
\b

\s5
|

|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 10 None is so fierce that he dare stir leviathan up;
|
|||
|
|
\q who, then, is he who can stand before me?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 11 Who has first given anything to me in order that I should repay him?
|
|||
|
|
\q Whatever is under the whole sky is mine.
|
|||
|
|
\b
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 12 I will not keep silent concerning leviathan’s legs,
|
|||
|
|
\q nor about the matter of his strength, nor about his graceful form.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 13 Who can strip off his outer covering?
|
|||
|
|
\q Who can penetrate his double armor?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 14 Who can open the doors of his face—
|
|||
|
|
\q ringed with his teeth, which are a terror?
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 15 His back is made up of rows of shields,
|
|||
|
|
\q close together as with a close seal.
|
|||
|
|
\b
|
|||
|
|
|

\s5

|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 16 One is so near to another
|
|||
|
|
\q that no air can come between them.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 17 They are joined to each other;
|
|||
|
|
\q they stick together, so that they cannot be pulled apart.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 18 Light flashes out from his snorting;
|
|||
|
|
\q his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning dawn.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 19 Out of his mouth go burning torches,
|
|||
|
|
\q sparks of fire leap out.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 20 Out of his nostrils goes smoke
|
|||
|
|
\q like a boiling pot on a fire that has been fanned to be very hot.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 21 His breath kindles coals into flame;
|
|||
|
|
\q fires go out from his mouth.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 22 In his neck is strength,
|
|||
|
|
\q and terror dances in front of him.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 23 The folds of his flesh are joined together;
|
|||
|
|
\q they are firm on him; they cannot be moved.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 24 His heart is as hard as a stone—
|
|||
|
|
\q indeed, as hard as a lower millstone.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 25 When he raises himself up, even the gods become afraid;
|
|||
|
|
\q because of fear, they draw back.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 26 If a sword strikes him, it does nothing—
|
|||
|
|
\q and neither does a spear, an arrow, or any other pointed weapon.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 27 He thinks of iron as if it were straw,
|
|||
|
|
\q and of bronze as if it were rotten wood.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 28 An arrow cannot make him flee;
|
|||
|
|
\q to him sling stones become chaff.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 29 Clubs are regarded as straw;
|
|||
|
|
\q he laughs at the whirring flight of a spear.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 30 His lower parts are like sharp pieces of broken pottery;
|
|||
|
|
\q he leaves a spreading trail in the mud as if he were a threshing sledge.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 31 He makes the deep to foam up like a pot of boiling water;
|
|||
|
|
\q he makes the sea like a pot of ointment.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 32 He makes the path to shine after him;
|
|||
|
|
\q one would think the deep to be white.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 33 On earth there is no equal to him,
|
|||
|
|
\q who has been made to live without fear.
|
|||
|
|
\q
|
|||
|
|
\v 34 He sees everything that is proud;
|
|||
|
|
\q he is king over all the sons of pride.”
