Job 41:1-9

1Wilt thou draw out the leviathan with the hook, and press down his tongue with a cord?

2Wilt thou put a rush-rope into his nose, and pierce his jaw with a spike?

3Will he make many supplications unto thee? or will he speak softly unto thee?

4Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him as a bondman for ever?

5Wilt thou play with him as with a bird, and wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?

6Shall partners make traffic of him, will they divide him among merchants?

7Wilt thou fill his skin with darts, and his head with fish-spears?

8Lay thy hand upon him; remember the battle, — do no more!

9Lo, hope as to him is belied: is not one cast down even at the sight of him?
