Job 41:1-5

1“Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook? Or press down his tongue with a cord?

2Can you put a rope [made] of rushes into his nose Or pierce his jaw through with a hook?

3Will he make many supplications to you [begging to be spared]? Or will he speak soft words to you [to coax you to treat him kindly]?

4Will he make a covenant or an arrangement with you? Will you take him for your servant forever?

5Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you bind him [and put him on a leash] for your maidens?
