< Job 41 >

1 Canst thou draw out the Crocodile with a fish-hook? Or, with a cord, canst thou fasten down his tongue?
Kabaelam kadi a banniitan ti leviatan? Wenno galutan ti sungona?
2 Wilt thou put a rush-cord on his nose? or, with a thorn, wilt thou pierce his jaw?
Kabaelam kadi a talian ti agongna, wenno duyoken ti pangalna babaen iti banniit?
3 Will he multiply unto thee supplications, or will he speak unto thee softly?
Agpakaasi kadi kenka daytoy? Makisao kadi kenka daytoy iti naalumamay?
4 Will he solemnise a covenant with thee? Wilt thou take him for a life-long servant?
Makitulag kadi daytoy kenka, nga alaem isuna nga agbalin nga adipenmo iti agnanayon?
5 Wilt thou sport with him, as with a little bird? Or wilt thou bind him, for thy maidens?
Makiaay-ayamka kadi kenkuana a kas iti billit? Galutam kadi isuna para kadagiti adipenmo a babbai?
6 Shall the companions bargain over him? or will they part him among the traders?
Makitinnawar kadi dagiti bunggoy ti mangngalap para kenkuana? Tadtadenda kadi isuna nga isukatda kadagiti aglaklako?
7 Wilt thou fill, with darts, his skin? or, with fish-spears, his head?
Kabaelam kadi a punnoen ti kudilna iti gayang wenno ti ulona iti pangkalap a pika?
8 Lay thou upon him thy hand, remember the battle—no more!
Sagidem isuna iti uray maminsan laeng, ket malaglagipmonto ti panakirangetna ket saanmonton nga uliten daytoy.
9 Lo! any hope of him, hath been found deceptive, Even at the sight of him, shall not one be overwhelmed?
Kitaem, ti namnama ti siasinoman a mangar-aramid iti dayta ket ubbaw; saan kadi a matuang iti daga ti siasinoman uray no makitada laeng daytoy?
10 None so bold, that he will rouse him! Who then is he that, before me, can stand?
Awan ti narungsot a makaitured a mangriribuk iti leviatan; siasino ngarud ti makaitured a tumakder iti sangoanak?
11 Who hath forestalled me, that I may repay him? Under all the heavens, mine it is!
Siasino ti immun-una a nakaited iti aniaman a banag kaniak tapno agsubadak koma kenkuana? Aniaman nga adda iti sirok ti sibubukel a tangatang ket kukuak.
12 I will not pass by in silence his parts, or the matter of strength, or the grace of his armour.
Saanak nga agulimek maipanggep kadagiti saka ti leviatan, wenno maipapan iti pigsana, wenno ti makaay-ayo a langana.
13 Who hath removed his outer garment, through his double row of teeth, who would enter?
Siasino ti makaikkat iti akinruar nga akkub ti bagina? Siasino ti makasalpot iti doble a kabalna?
14 The doors of his face, who hath opened? The circles of his teeth, are a terror!
Siasino ti makalukat iti ruangan ti rupana - a napalikmutan kadagiti ngipenna, a nakabutbuteng?
15 A pride, are his arched sides, closed up, with a firm seal;
Naaramid ti bukotna iti naintar a salaknib, nagdedekketda a kas iti nagdidinnekket a pangserra.
16 One to another, they join, and, air, cannot enter between them;
Naidekket unay ti maysa iti sabali pay nga awan pulos ti angin a makastrek iti nagbabaetan dagitoy.
17 Each to its fellow, they cleave, they grasp each other, and cannot be parted;
Nagdidinnekketda iti tunggal maysa; nagkikinnapetda, tapno saanda a mapagsisina.
18 His sneezings, flash forth light, and, his eyes, are like the eyelashes of the dawn;
Adda silnag a rummuar iti panagbang-esna; maiyarig dagiti matana iti panagsingising ti init iti parbangon.
19 Out of his mouth, torches dart forth, sparks of fire, escape;
Iti ngiwatna, rumuar ti kasla umap-apuy a pagsilawan, aglalagto a rummuar dagiti rissik ti apuy.
20 Out of his nostrils, proceedeth smoke, like a blown pot and rushes;
Kadagiti abut ti agongna, rumuar ti asuk a kas iti agburburek a danum iti banga a nakasaang iti apuy a kasta unay ti pudotna.
21 His breath, setteth coals ablaze, and, a flame, out of his mouth, proceedeth;
Pasgedan ti angesna dagiti uging; apuy ti rumuar manipud iti ngiwatna.
22 In his neck, lodgeth strength, and, before him, danceth dismay;
Iti tengngedna ket kinapigsa, ket nakabutbuteng ti lumablabas iti sangoananna.
23 The dewlaps of his flesh, cleave together, hardened upon him, they cannot be moved;
Nagdidinnekket dagiti paspaset ti lasagna; nakalaglagdada; saanda a makuti.
24 His heart, is hardened like a stone, yea hardened, like the nether millstone;
Ti pusona ket kas katangken ti bato - pudno, katangtangken ti akinbaba a bato ti paggilingan.
25 At his rising up, mighty men are afraid, by reason of terror, they are beside themselves:
No tumakder isuna, uray dagiti didiosen ket agbuteng; gapu iti buteng, agsanudda.
26 As for him that assaileth him, the sword availeth not, spear, dart, or coat of mail:
No maiduyok ti kampilan kenkuana, awan mamaayna - ken uray ti gayang ken pana wenno uray ania a natirad nga armas.
27 He counteth iron as broken straw, and bronze as rotten wood:
Kasla laeng garami, ti landok kenkuana, ken ti bronse ket kasla laeng narukop a kayo.
28 The arrow, will not make him flee, Into chaff, are sling-stones changed by him:
Saan isuna a mapagtaray ti pana; para kenkuana, ti maipalsiit a bato ket kasla laeng taep.
29 As a straw, is a club accounted, and he laugheth at the whir of the javelin;
Dagiti pang-or ket ibilbilangna a kas garami; katkatawaanna dagiti agtatayab a gayang nga agturong kenkuana.
30 His underparts, are points of potsherd, a pointed threshing roller spreadeth out upon the slime:
Dagiti akinbaba a pasetna ket maiyarig kadagiti natatadem a paset ti nabuong a banga; mangibati isuna iti tugot iti kapitakan a kasla maysa isuna a dakkel nga arado.
31 He causeth to boil, as a cauldron, the raging deep, the sea, he maketh like a brewing vessel:
Pagburekenna ti nauneg a baybay a kas iti maysa a banga nga adda agburburek a danumna; pagbalinenna ti baybay a kasla banga ti sapsapo.
32 After him, he lighteth up a path, one might think the resounding deep to be hoary!
Pagraniagenna ti pagnaanna; pagarupen ti makakita a nagbalin a puraw ti nauneg a baybay.
33 There is not—upon the dust—his like, that hath been made to be without fear;
Iti rabaw ti daga, awan ti umasping kenkuana, a nagbiag nga awan pagbutnganna.
34 Every thing lofty, he beholdeth, he, is king over all ravenous beasts.
Makitkitana amin a napalangguad; isuna ti ari kadagiti amin nga annak ti kinapalangguad.”
