1Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?→2Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?→3Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee?→4Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?→5Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?→6Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?→7Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?→8Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.→9Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?→10None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?→11Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.→12I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.→13Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?→14Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.→15His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.→16One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.→17They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.→18By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.→19Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out.→20Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron.→21His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.→22In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.→23The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.→24His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone.→25When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.→26The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.→27He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.→28The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.→29Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.→30Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.→31He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.→32He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.→33Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.→34He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.→
