      | ¶ | Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord [which] thou lettest down? | |
| Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn? | ||
 | Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft [words] unto thee? | ||
| Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever? | ||
| Wilt thou play with him as [with] a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? | ||
| Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants? | ||
| Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears? | ||
| Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more. | ||
| Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not [one] be cast down even at the sight of him? | ||
| None [is so] fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me? | ||
| Who hath prevented me, that I should repay [him? whatsoever is] under the whole heaven is mine. | ||
| I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion. | ||
| Who can discover the face of his garment? [or] who can come [to him] with his double bridle? | ||
| Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth [are] terrible round about. | ||
| [His] scales [are his] pride, shut up together [as with] a close seal. | ||
| One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. | ||
| They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. | ||
| By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes [are] like the eyelids of the morning. | ||
| Out of his mouth go burning lamps, [and] sparks of fire leap out. | ||
| Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as [out] of a seething pot or caldron. | ||
| His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth. | ||
| In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him. | ||
| The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved. | ||
| His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether [millstone]. | ||
| When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves. | ||
| The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon. | ||
| He esteemeth iron as straw, [and] brass as rotten wood. | ||
| The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble. | ||
| Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear. | ||
| Sharp stones [are] under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire. | ||
| He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. | ||
| He maketh a path to shine after him; [one] would think the deep [to be] hoary. | ||
| Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear. | ||
| He beholdeth all high [things]: he [is] a king over all the children of pride. |
