1 Will you draw out? Leviathan with a fish hook and with a cord will you hold down? tongue its.
Wilt thou draw out the leviathan with the hook, and press down his tongue with a cord?
2 ¿ Will you put a cord in nose its and with a hook will you pierce? jaw its.
Wilt thou put a rush-rope into his nose, and pierce his jaw with a spike?
3 ¿ Will it multiply to you supplications or? will it speak to you soft [words].
Will he make many supplications unto thee? or will he speak softly unto thee?
4 ¿ Will it make a covenant with you will you take? it to a slave of perpetuity.
Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him as a bondman for ever?
5 ¿ Will you play with it like bird and will you bind? it for girls your.
Wilt thou play with him as with a bird, and wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
6 Will they bargain? on it partners will they divide? it between merchants.
Shall partners make traffic of him, will they divide him among merchants?
7 ¿ Will you fill with harpoons hide its and with a spear of fish head its.
Wilt thou fill his skin with darts, and his head with fish-spears?
8 Put on it hands your remember [the] battle may not you repeat.
Lay thy hand upon him; remember the battle, — do no more!
9 There! hope his it is proved a lie ¿ also because of appearance its everyone is thrown down.
Lo, hope as to him is belied: is not one cast down even at the sight of him?
10 Not fierce that he will rouse it and who? that before me will he take his stand.
None is so bold as to stir him up; and who is he that will stand before me?
11 Who? has he confronted me and I may repay under all the heavens [belongs] to me it.
Who hath first given to me, that I should repay [him]? [Whatsoever is] under the whole heaven is mine.
12 (To it *Q(K)*) I will keep silent limbs its and [the] matter of strength and [the] grace of arrangement its.
I will not be silent as to his parts, the story of his power, and the beauty of his structure.
13 Who? has he uncovered [the] surface of clothing its in [the] doubling of halter its who? will he come.
Who can uncover the surface of his garment? who can come within his double jaws?
14 [the] doors of Face its who? has he opened [is] around teeth its terror.
Who can open the doors of his face? Round about his teeth is terror.
15 Pride [is] rows of shields shut up a seal tight.
The rows of his shields are a pride, shut up together [as with] a close seal.
16 One on one they draw near and a breath not it goes between them.
One is so near to another that no air can come between them;
17 Each on brother its they are joined together they grasp one another and not they are separated.
They are joined each to its fellow; they stick together, and cannot be sundered.
18 Sneezing its it flashes forth light and eyes its [are] like [the] eyelids of dawn.
His sneezings flash light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
19 From mouth its torches they go sparks of fire they escape.
Out of his mouth go forth flames; sparks of fire leap out:
20 From nostrils its it goes forth smoke like a pot blown upon and bulrush[es].
Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a boiling pot and cauldron.
21 Breath its coals it kindles and a flame from mouth its it goes forth.
His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
22 In neck its it lodges strength and before it it leaps dismay.
In his neck lodgeth strength, and terror danceth before him.
23 [the] hanging parts of Flesh its they cling hard to it not it is moved.
The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are fused upon him, they cannot be moved.
24 Heart its [is] hard like a stone and hard like a mill-stone lower.
His heart is firm as a stone, yea, firm as the nether [millstone].
25 From uprising its they are afraid mighty ones from crashing they are bewildered.
When he raiseth himself up, the mighty are afraid: they are beside themselves with consternation.
26 [one who] reaches It a sword not it is established a spear a dart and a javelin.
If any reach him with a sword, it cannot hold; neither spear, nor dart, nor harpoon.
27 It considers to straw iron to wood of rottenness bronze.
He esteemeth iron as straw, bronze as rotten wood.
28 Not it makes flee it [the] son of a bow into chaff they are changed for it stones of a sling.
The arrow will not make him flee; slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
29 Like chaff they are regarded a club so it may laugh to [the] shaking of a javelin.
Clubs are counted as stubble; he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin.
30 Under it [are] sharp points of potsherd[s] it spreads out a threshing sledge on mud.
His under parts are sharp potsherds: he spreadeth a threshing-sledge upon the mire.
31 It makes boil like pot [the] deep [the] sea it makes like pot of ointment.
He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment;
32 Behind it it makes shine a path anyone considers [the] deep to grey hair.
He maketh the path to shine after him: one would think the deep to be hoary.
33 Not [is] on [the] dust likeness its the [one] made for not fear.
Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
34 Every exalted [one] it sees it [is] king over all [the] sons of pride.
He beholdeth all high things; he is king over all the proud beasts.
