1 CAN you catch the Leviathan with a hook? Or draw him out with a cord in his mouth? 2 Can you put a bridle in his mouth? Or bore his jaw with a thorn? 3 Will he make many supplications to you? Or will he speak flattering words to you? 4 Will he make a covenant with you? Or will you count him as a servant for ever? 5 Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you keep him as a pet for your children? 6 Shall fishermen gather over him? Shall they divide him among many people? 7 Can you fill his skin with meat? Or bake his head with fire? 8 Try to capture him; such a battle you will have! You will never forget it. 9 Behold, Job, you now are set free from your afflictions. So your God will also remove your bitterness. 10 One cannot go far off when Leviathan is stirred up; but who then is able to stand before me? Job 41:1-10, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
