Job 41:1-9

1“Can you pull Leviathan out ⌞of the water⌟ with a fishhook or tie its tongue down with a rope?

2Can you put a ring through its nose or pierce its jaw with a hook?

3Will it plead with you for mercy or speak tenderly to you?

4Will it make an agreement with you so that you can take it as your permanent slave?

5Can you play with it like a bird or keep it on a leash for your girls?

6Will traders bargain over it and divide it among the merchants?

7Can you fill its hide with harpoons or its head with fishing spears?

8Lay your hand on it. Think of the struggle! Don’t do it again!

9Certainly, any hope ⌞of defeating it⌟ is a false hope. Doesn’t the sight of it overwhelm you?
