Job 41:1-9

1"Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook or press down his tongue with a cord?

2Can you put a rope in his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?

3Will he make many pleas to you? Will he speak to you soft words?

4Will he make a covenant with you to take him for your servant forever?

5Will you play with him as with a bird, or will you put him on a leash for your girls?

6Will traders bargain over him? Will they divide him up among the merchants?

7Can you fill his skin with harpoons or his head with fishing spears?

8Lay your hands on him; remember the battle—you will not do it again!

9Behold, the hope of a man is false; he is laid low even at the sight of him.
