41:1 (40:25) 1 “Can you pull in 2 Leviathan with a hook,
and tie down 3 its tongue with a rope?
41:2 Can you put a cord through its nose,
or pierce its jaw with a hook?
41:3 Will it make numerous supplications to you, 4
will it speak to you with tender words? 5
41:4 Will it make a pact 6 with you,
so you could take it 7 as your slave for life?
41:7 Can you fill its hide with harpoons
or its head with fishing spears?
41:13 Who can uncover its outer covering? 8
Who can penetrate to the inside of its armor? 9
41:25 When it rises up, the mighty are terrified,
at its thrashing about they withdraw. 10
41:28 Arrows 11 do not make it flee;
slingstones become like chaff to it.
