3
Will he make many supplications unto thee? Or will he speak soft words unto thee?
4
Will he make a covenant with thee, That thou shouldest 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
Will the bands [of fishermen] make traffic of him? Will 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, and do so no more.
9
Behold, the hope of him is in vain: Will not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
10
None is so fierce that he dare stir him up; Who then is he that can stand before me?
11
Who hath first given unto me, that I should repay him? [Whatsoever is] under the whole heaven is mine.
12
I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, Nor his mighty strength, nor his goodly frame.
13
Who can strip off his outer garment? Who shall come within his jaws?
