2 (26) (26) Canst thou put a hook into his af (nose)? Or bore his jaw through with a barb?

3 (27) (27) Will he make many tachanunim unto thee? Will he speak soft words unto thee?

4 (28) (28) Will he make a brit (covenant) with thee? Wilt thou take him for an eved olam?

5 (29) (29) Wilt thou play with him as with a pet bird? Or wilt thou leash him for thy na'arot (maidens)?

6 (30) (30) Shall traders barter for him? Shall they divide him among the Kena'anim (Canaanites, merchants)?

7 (31) (31) Canst thou fill his ohr (skin) with harpoons? Or his head with fishing spears?

8 (32) (32) Lay thine hand upon him; remember the milchamah. Thou wilt not do it more.

9 (41:1) (41:1) See, every tokhelet (expectation) is false; shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?

10 (41:2) (41:2) None is so foolhardy that dare stir him up. Mi (who) then is able to stand before Me?

11 (41:3) (41:3) Mi (who) hath given Me, that I must repay him? Whatsoever is under the kol HaShomayim is Mine.

12 (41:4) (41:4) I will not keep silent about his members, nor his gevurah, nor the grace of his form.

13 (41:5) (41:5) Mi (who) can remove his outer garment? Or mi (who) can come near him with a double bridle?

14 (41:6) (41:6) Mi (who) can open the doors of his face? Terror is round about his teeth.

15 (41:7) (41:7) His scales are his ga'avah (pride), shut up together as with a rigid chotam (seal).

16 (41:8) (41:8) One is so near to another, that no ruach (air) can pass between them.

17 (41:9) (41:9) They are joined one to another; they stick together, inseparably.

18 (41:10) (41:10) By his sneezings ohr flares out, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the shachar.

19 (41:11) (41:11) Out of his mouth goeth flame, and sparks of eish leap out.

20 (41:12) (41:12) Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, like a seething pot or caldron.

21 (41:13) (41:13) His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.

22 (41:14) (41:14) In his neck resideth oz (strength), and terror dances before him.

23 (41:15) (41:15) The flanks of his basar are joined together; they are firm in themselves, immoveable.

24 (41:16) (41:16)] His lev (chest) is as firm as an even (stone); yea, as hard as the lower millstone.

25 (41:17) (41:17) When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid; shuddering they retreat.

26 (41:18) (41:18) The cherev of him that reacheth at him cannot hold--the spear, the dart, nor the harpoon.

27 (41:19) (41:19) He esteemeth barzel (iron) like straw, and nechoshet as rotten wood.

28 (41:20) (41:20) The arrow cannot make him flee; sling stones are turned with him into stubble.

29 (41:21) (41:21) Clubs are counted as straw; he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.

30 (41:22) (41:22) Sharp shards are his under parts; he leaveth a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge.

31 (41:23) (41:23) He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he stirreth the yam like a pot of ointment.

32 (41:24) (41:24) He maketh a wake to shine after him; one would think the deep to be white hair.

33 (41:25) (41:25) Upon earth there is not his equal, who is created without fear.

34 (41:26) (41:26) He beholdeth all things lofty; he is a melech over every proud beast.
