Job 41

Young's Literal Translation YLT

1 Dost thou draw leviathan with an angle? And with a rope thou lettest down -- his tongue?

2 Dost thou put a reed in his nose? And with a thorn pierce his jaw?

3 Doth he multiply unto thee supplications? Doth he speak unto thee tender things?

4 Doth he make a covenant with thee? Dost thou take him for a servant age-during?

5 Dost thou play with him as a bird? And dost thou bind him for thy damsels?

6 (Feast upon him do companions, They divide him among the merchants!)

7 Dost thou fill with barbed irons his skin? And with fish-spears his head?

8 Place on him thy hand, Remember the battle -- do not add!

9 Lo, the hope of him is found a liar, Also at his appearance is not one cast down?

10 None so fierce that he doth awake him, And who [is] he before Me stationeth himself?

11 Who hath brought before Me and I repay? Under the whole heavens it [is] mine.

12 I do not keep silent concerning his parts, And the matter of might, And the grace of his arrangement.

13 Who hath uncovered the face of his clothing? Within his double bridle who doth enter?

14 The doors of his face who hath opened? Round about his teeth [are] terrible.

15 A pride -- strong ones of shields, Shut up -- a close seal.

16 One unto another they draw nigh, And air doth not enter between them.

17 One unto another they adhere, They stick together and are not separated.

18 His sneezings cause light to shine, And his eyes [are] as the eyelids of the dawn.

19 Out of his mouth do flames go, sparks of fire escape.

20 Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, As a blown pot and reeds.

21 His breath setteth coals on fire, And a flame from his mouth goeth forth.

22 In his neck lodge doth strength, And before him doth grief exult.

23 The flakes of his flesh have adhered -- Firm upon him -- it is not moved.

24 His heart [is] firm as a stone, Yea, firm as the lower piece.

25 From his rising are the mighty afraid, From breakings they keep themselves free.

26 The sword of his overtaker standeth not, Spear -- dart -- and lance.

27 He reckoneth iron as straw, brass as rotten wood.

28 The son of the bow doth not cause him to flee, Turned by him into stubble are stones of the sling.

29 As stubble have darts been reckoned, And he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin.

30 Under him [are] sharp points of clay, He spreadeth gold on the mire.

31 He causeth to boil as a pot the deep, The sea he maketh as a pot of ointment.

32 After him he causeth a path to shine, One thinketh the deep to be hoary.

33 There is not on the earth his like, That is made without terror.

34 Every high thing he doth see, He [is] king over all sons of pride.

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

1 Can you pull in Leviathan with a hook or tie his tongue down with a rope?

2 Can you put a cord through his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?

3 Will he beg you for mercy or speak softly to you?

4 Will he make a covenant with you so that you can take him as a slave forever?

5 Can you play with him like a bird or put him on a leash for your girls?

6 Will traders bargain for him or divide him among the merchants?

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

8 Lay a hand on him. You will remember the battle and never repeat it!

9 Any hope of [capturing] him proves false. Does a person not collapse at the very sight of him?

10 No one is ferocious [enough] to rouse Leviathan; who then can stand against Me?

11 Who confronted Me, that I should repay him? Everything under heaven belongs to Me.

12 I cannot be silent about his limbs, his power, and his graceful proportions.

13 Who can strip off his outer covering? Who can penetrate his double layer of armor?

14 Who can open his jaws, surrounded by those terrifying teeth?

15 [His] pride is in [his] rows of scales, closely sealed together.

16 One scale is so close to another that no air can pass between them.

17 They are joined to one another, so closely connected they cannot be separated.

18 His snorting flashes with light, while his eyes are like the rays of dawn.

19 Flaming torches shoot from his mouth; fiery sparks fly out!

20 Smoke billows from his nostrils as from a boiling pot or [burning] reeds.

21 His breath sets coals ablaze, and flames pour out of his mouth.

22 Strength resides in his neck, and dismay dances before him.

23 The folds of his flesh are joined together, solid as metal and immovable.

24 His heart is as hard as a rock, as hard as a lower millstone!

25 When Leviathan rises, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw because of [his] thrashing.

26 The sword that reaches him will have no effect, nor will a spear, dart, or arrow.

27 He regards iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood.

28 No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like stubble to him.

29 A club is regarded as stubble, and he laughs at the whirring of a javelin.

30 His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading the mud like a threshing sledge.

31 He makes the depths seethe like a caldron; he makes the sea like an ointment jar.

32 He leaves a shining wake behind him; one would think the deep had white hair!

33 He has no equal on earth- a creature devoid of fear!

34 He surveys everything that is haughty; he is king over all the proud beasts.
