Job 41:1 - 41:11

« Job 40 | Job 41 | Job 42 »

Can You Draw Out Leviathan?

“Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook?

Or press down its tongue with a cord?

2

Can you put a rope in its nose

Or pierce its jaw with a hook?

3

Will it make many supplications to you,

Or will he speak to you soft words?

4

Will it cut a covenant with you?

Will you take it for a slave forever?

5

Will you play with it as with a bird,

Or will you bind it for your young women?

6

Will the traders bargain over it?

Will they divide it among the merchants?

7

Can you fill its skin with harpoons,

Or its head with fishing spears?

8

Place your hand on it;

Remember the battle; you will not do that again!

9

Behold, his expectation is a lie;

Will he be laid low even at the sight of it?

10

No one is so fierce that he dares to arouse it;

Who then is he that can stand before Me?

11

Who has given to Me that I should repay him?

Whatever is under the whole heaven is Mine.
