2
Canst thou put a hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
3
Will he make many supplications to thee? will he speak soft [words] to thee?
4
Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?
5
Wilt thou play with him as [with] a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
6
Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants.
7
Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?
8
Lay thy hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.
9
Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not [one] be cast down even at the sight of him?
10
None [is so] fierce that he dare rouse him: who then is able to stand before me?
11
Who hath first benefited me, that I should repay [him]? [whatever is] under the whole heaven is mine.
12
I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.
