| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1“Can you pull in Leviathan with a hook or tie down his tongue with a rope? |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2Can you put a cord through his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook? |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Will he beg you for mercy or speak to you softly? |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Will he make a covenant with you to take him as a slave for life? |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Can you pet him like a bird or put him on a leash for your maidens? |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Will traders barter for him or divide him among the merchants? |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Can you fill his hide with harpoons or his head with fishing spears? |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8If you lay a hand on him, you will remember the battle and never repeat it! |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Surely hope of overcoming him is false. Is not the sight of him overwhelming? |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10No one is so fierce as to rouse Leviathan. Then who is able to stand against Me? |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Who has given to Me that I should repay him? Everything under heaven is Mine. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12I cannot keep silent about his limbs, his power and graceful form. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Who can strip off his outer coat? Who can approach him with a bridle? |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Who can open his jaws, ringed by his fearsome teeth? |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15His rows of scales are his pride, tightly sealed together. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16One scale is so near to another that no air can pass between them. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17They are joined to one another; they clasp and cannot be separated. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18His snorting flashes with light, and his eyes are like the rays of dawn. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19Firebrands stream from his mouth; fiery sparks shoot forth! |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Smoke billows from his nostrils as from a boiling pot over burning reeds. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21His breath sets coals ablaze, and flames pour from his mouth. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22Strength resides in his neck, and dismay leaps before him. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23The folds of his flesh are tightly joined; they are firm and immovable. |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24His chest is as hard as a rock, as hard as a lower millstone! |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw before his thrashing. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26The sword that reaches him has no effect, nor does the spear or dart or arrow. |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood. |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like chaff to him. |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance. |
| 30[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading out the mud like a threshing sledge. |
| 31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron; he makes the sea like a jar of ointment. |
| 32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32He leaves a glistening wake behind him; one would think the deep had white hair! |
| 33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 33Nothing on earth is his equal—a creature devoid of fear! |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34He looks down on all the haughty; he is king over all the proud.” |
