ABP_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G71 And shall you lead G1161 G1404 the dragon G1722 by G44 a hook, G4060 and put G1161 G5408.1 a halter G4012 around G4492.2 his nose? G1473

2 G2228 Or G1210 will you tie G2916.1 a hook G1722 in G3588 G3455.1 his nose, G1473 G5568.8 [⁴for a clasp G1161 ¹and G5168.1 ²will you make a hole G3588 G5491 ³in his lip]? G1473

3 G2980 And will he speak G1161 G1473 to you G1162 [²supplications G2428 ¹earnest] G3120.2 softly?

4 G5087 [²will he establish G1161 G1161 ¹And G3326 ⁴with G1473 ⁵you G1242 ³a covenant]? G2983 And will you take G1161 G1473 him G1401 [²servant G166 ¹for an everlasting]?

5 G3815 And will you play G1161 G1722 with G1473 him G5618 as G3732 a bird? G2228 Or G1210 will you bind G1473 him G5618 as G4765 a sparrow G3813 for a child?

6 G1777.1 [³feed G1161 ¹And do G1722 ⁴in G1473 ⁵him G1484 ²nations]? G3312.1 [⁴partition G1161 ¹And do G1473 ⁵him G* ³ of the Phoenicians G1484 ² the nations]?

7 G3956 And everything G1161 G4150.1 afloat G4905 coming together G3766.2 in no way G5342 shall bear G1037.1 the hide G1520 [²one G3769 ³tail G1473 ¹of his]; G2532 nor G1722 in G4143 the boats G231 of fishermen G2776 shall they bear his head. G1473

8 G2007 But shall you place G1161 G1473 a hand on him, G5495 G3403 remembering G4171 the war G3588 G1096 taking place G1722 in G4983 his body, G1473 G2532 and G3371 let it no longer G1096 take place?

9 G3756 Have you not G3708 seen G1473 him, G3761 nor G1909 [²over G3588 ³the ones G3004 ⁴speaking G2296 ¹wondered]?

10 G3756 Are you not G1165.1 in awe G3754 that G2090 it has been prepared G1473 by me? G5100 For who G1063 G1510.2.3 is G3588 the one G1473 opposing me? G436

11 G2228 Or G5100 who G436 shall oppose G1473 me G2532 and G5278 remain, G1487 since G3956 all G3588 G5259 under G3772 heaven G1699 is mine? G1510.2.3

12 G3756 I will not G4623 keep silent G1223 because of G1473 him; G2532 and G3056 the word G1411 of power G1653 shall show mercy G3588 G2470 equal G1473 to him.

13 G5100 Who G601 will uncover G4383 the front G1745 of his clothing? G1473 G1519 and into G1161 G4424.2 the fold G2382 of his chest plate G1473 G5100 who G302 can G1525 enter?

14 G4439 [³ the gates G4383 ⁴of his face G1473 G5100 ¹Who G455 ²will open]? G2945 Round about G3599 his teeth G1473 G5401 is fear;

15 G3588 G1458.3 His insides G1473 G785 are as shields G5470 of brass, G4886 [³sinews G1161 ¹and G1473 ²his] G5618 are as G4665.4 emery G3037 stone.

16 G1520 One G3588 G1520 of one G2853 cleaves together, G4151 and wind G1161 G3766.2 in no way G1330 goes through G1473 it;

17 G5613 as G435 a man G3588 to G80 his brother G1473 G4347 they shall be cleaved; G4912 they are held together, G2532 and G3766.2 in no way G645 draw apart.

18 G1722 In G4417.1 his sneezing G1473 G2017 [²shines forth G5338 ¹brightness], G3588 G1161 and G3788 his eyes G1473 G1491 are as the appearance G2193.1 of the morning star.

19 G1537 From out of G4750 his mouth G1473 G1607 [³shall go forth G2985 ²lamps G2545 ¹burning], G2532 and G1284.1 scattered G2077.1 grates G4442 of fire.

20 G1537 From out of G3455.1 his nostrils G1473 G1607 comes forth G2586 smoke G2575 of a furnace G2545 burning G4442 [²of fire G440 ¹with coals].

21 G3588 G5590 His soul G1473 G440 is as live coals; G5395 and a flame G1161 G1537 [²from out of G4750 ³his mouth G1473 G1607 ¹goes forth].

22 G1722 And in G1161 G5137 his neck G1473 G835 lodges G1411 power. G1715 [³before G1473 ⁴him G5143 ²runs G684 ¹Destruction].

23 G4561 And the flesh G1161 G4983 of his body G1473 G2853 cleaves tightly . G2708 If one pours down G1909 upon G1473 him, G3756 he will not be shaken. G4531

24 G3588 G2588 His heart G1473 G4078 is fixed G5618 as G3037 stone, G2476 and he stands G1161 G5618 as G188.1 an anvil, G433.1 not malleable.

25 G4762 [³turning G1161 ¹And G1473 ²his] G5401 gives fear G2342 [²wild beasts G5074 ¹to the four-footed G1909 ⁴upon G1093 ⁵ the earth G242 ³leaping].

26 G1437 If G4876 [²should meet up with G1473 ³him G3057 ¹lances], G3762 nothing G3766.2 in any way G4422 shall terrify G1393.2 by spear G2532 and G2382 chest plate .

27 G2233 For he esteems G3303 G1063 G4604 iron G892 as straw, G5475 and brass G1161 G5618 as G3586 [²wood G4524.1 ¹rotten].

28 G3766.2 In no way G5103.1 shall [³pierce G1473 ⁴him G5115 ¹ the bow G5469.3 ²of brass]. G2233 He esteems G4073.2 a slinger G3303 indeed G5528 as grass;

29 G5613 [³as G2562 ⁴stubble G3049 ²are considered G4973.1 ¹hammers]; G2606 and he ridicules G1161 G4578 the quaking G4450.3 of a fire-bearer.

30 G3588 G4765.7 His strewn bed G1473 G3588.1 [²points G3691 ¹ is of sharp]; G3956 and all G1161 G5557 the gold G2281 of the sea G1909 under G1473 him G5618 is as G4081 [²mud G291.2 ¹untold].

31 G326.2 [³breaks out G3588 ¹The G12 ²abyss] G5618 as G5469.2 a brazen cauldron; G2233 and he esteems G1161 G3588 the G2281 sea G5618 as G1812.3 an ointment jar.

32 G3588 And the G1161 G5019.1 infernal region G3588 of the G12 abyss G5618 is as if G164 a captive; G3049 he considers G12 the abyss G1519 for G4043.1 a promenade.

33 G3756 There is not G1510.2.3 G3762 anything G1909 upon G3588 the G1093 earth G3664 likened G1473 to him, G4160 being made, G1460.1 to be mocked at G5259 by G3588 G32 my angels. G1473

34 G3956 Every G5308 lofty thing G3708 he sees; G1473 and he G1161 G935 is king G3956 of all G3588 the things G1722 in G3588 the G5204 waters.

1 H4900 [H8799] Canst thou draw out H3882 leviathan H2443 with an hook? H3956 or his tongue H2256 with a cord H8257 [H8686] which thou lettest down?

2 H7760 [H8799] Canst thou put H100 an hook H639 into his nose? H5344 [H8799] or puncture H3895 his jaw H2336 through with a thorn?

3 H7235 [H8686] Will he make many H8469 supplications H1696 [H8762] to thee? will he speak H7390 soft words to thee?

4 H3772 [H8799] Will he make H1285 a covenant H3947 [H8799] with thee? wilt thou take H5650 him for a servant H5769 to the age?

5 H7832 [H8762] Wilt thou play H6833 with him as with a bird? H7194 [H8799] or wilt thou bind H5291 him for thy damsels?

8 H7760 [H8798] Lay H3709 thy palm H2142 [H8798] upon him, remember H4421 the battle, H3254 [H8686] do no more.

9 H8431 Behold, the hope H3576 [H8738] of him is in vain: H2904 [H8714] shall not one be cast down H4758 even at the sight of him?

10 H393 None is so ferocious H5782 H5782 [H8799] that he dare rouse him: H3320 [H8691] who then is able to stand H6440 at the face of me?

11 H6923 [H8689] Who hath given to H7999 [H8762] me, that I should repay H8064 him? whatever is under the whole heaven is mine.

12 H2790 [H8686] I will not conceal H907 his parts, H1369 H1697 nor his power, H2433 nor his comely H6187 proportion.

13 H1540 [H8765] Who can uncover H6440 the face H3830 of his garment? H935 [H8799] or who can come H3718 to him with his double H7448 bridle?

14 H6605 [H8765] Who can open H1817 the doors H6440 of his face? H5439 Around H8127 his teeth H367 there is terror.

15 H4043 H650 His scales H1346 are his pride, H5462 [H8803] shut together H6862 as with a close H2368 seal.

16 H259 One H5066 [H8799] is so near H259 to another, H7307 that no wind H935 [H8799] can come between them.

17 H1692 [H8792] They are joined H376 one H251 to another, H3920 [H8691] they stick together, H6504 [H8691] that they cannot be sundered.

18 H5846 His sneezes H1984 [H8686] flash H216 light, H5869 and his eyes H6079 are like the eyelids H7837 of the morning.

19 H6310 Out of his mouth H1980 [H8799] go H3940 burning lamps, H3590 and sparks H784 of fire H4422 [H8691] dart forth.

20 H5156 Out of his nostrils H3318 [H8799] goeth H6227 smoke, H5301 [H8803] as out of a boiling H1731 pot H100 or caldron.

21 H5315 His breath H3857 [H8762] kindleth H1513 coals, H3851 and a flame H3318 [H8799] goeth out H6310 of his mouth.

22 H6677 In his neck H3885 [H8799] remaineth H5797 strength, H1670 and pining H1750 [H8799] is turned into joy H6440 at the face of him.

23 H4651 The flakes H1320 of his flesh H1692 [H8804] are joined together: H3332 [H8803] they are firm H4131 [H8735] in themselves; they cannot be moved.

24 H3820 His heart H3332 [H8803] is as firm H68 as a stone; H3332 [H8803] yea, as hard H6400 as a piece H8482 of the lower millstone.

25 H7613 When he raiseth H352 himself, the mighty H1481 [H8799] are afraid: H7667 by reason of the crashing H2398 [H8691] they purify themselves.

26 H2719 The sword H5381 [H8688] of him that overtaketh H6965 [H8799] him cannot hold: H2595 the spear, H4551 the dart, H8302 nor the javelin.

27 H2803 [H8799] He esteemeth H1270 iron H8401 as straw, H5154 and brass H7539 as rotten H6086 wood.

28 H1121 H7198 The arrow H1272 [H8686] cannot make him flee: H68 H7050 slingstones H2015 [H8738] are turned H7179 with him into stubble.

29 H8455 Darts H2803 [H8738] are counted H7179 as stubble: H7832 [H8799] he laugheth H7494 at the shaking H3591 of a spear.

30 H2303 Sharp H2789 stones H7502 [H8799] are under him: he spreadeth H2742 sharp pointed things H2916 upon the mire.

31 H4688 He maketh the deep H7570 [H8686] to boil H5518 like a pot: H7760 [H8799] he maketh H3220 the sea H4841 like a pot of ointment.

32 H5410 He maketh a path H215 [H8686] to shine H310 after H2803 [H8799] him; one would think H8415 the deep H7872 to be hoary.

33 H6083 Upon dust H4915 there is not his like, H6213 [H8803] who is made H1097 without H2844 fear.

34 H7200 [H8799] He beholdeth H1364 all high H4428 things: he is a king H1121 over all the sons H7830 of pride.

10 H393 None is so fierce H5782 that dare stir him up [H8799] [H8675] H5782 [H8686] H3320 : who then is able to stand [H8691] H6440 before me?

11 H6923 Who hath prevented [H8689] H7999 me, that I should repay [H8762] H8064 him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.

12 H2790 I will not conceal [H8686] H907 his parts H1369 , nor his power H1697 H2433 , nor his comely H6187 proportion.

13 H1540 Who can discover [H8765] H6440 the face H3830 of his garment H935 ? or who can come [H8799] H3718 to him with his double H7448 bridle?

14 H6605 Who can open [H8765] H1817 the doors H6440 of his face H8127 ? his teeth H367 are terrible H5439 round about.

15 H4043 His scales H650 H1346 are his pride H5462 , shut up together [H8803] H6862 as with a close H2368 seal.

16 H259 One H5066 is so near [H8799] H259 to another H7307 , that no air H935 can come [H8799] between them.

17 H1692 They are joined [H8792] H376 one H251 to another H3920 , they stick together [H8691] H6504 , that they cannot be sundered [H8691] .

18 H5846 By his neesings H216 a light H1984 doth shine [H8686] H5869 , and his eyes H6079 are like the eyelids H7837 of the morning.

19 H6310 Out of his mouth H1980 go [H8799] H3940 burning lamps H3590 , and sparks H784 of fire H4422 leap out [H8691] .

20 H5156 Out of his nostrils H3318 goeth [H8799] H6227 smoke H5301 , as out of a seething [H8803] H1731 pot H100 or caldron.

21 H5315 His breath H3857 kindleth [H8762] H1513 coals H3851 , and a flame H3318 goeth out [H8799] H6310 of his mouth.

22 H6677 In his neck H3885 remaineth [H8799] H5797 strength H1670 , and sorrow H1750 is turned into joy [H8799] H6440 before him.

23 H4651 The flakes H1320 of his flesh H1692 are joined together [H8804] H3332 : they are firm [H8803] H4131 in themselves; they cannot be moved [H8735] .

24 H3820 His heart H3332 is as firm [H8803] H68 as a stone H3332 ; yea, as hard [H8803] H6400 as a piece H8482 of the nether millstone .

25 H7613 When he raiseth up H352 himself, the mighty H1481 are afraid [H8799] H7667 : by reason of breakings H2398 they purify [H8691] themselves.

26 H2719 The sword H5381 of him that layeth [H8688] H6965 at him cannot hold [H8799] H2595 : the spear H4551 , the dart H8302 , nor the habergeon.

27 H2803 He esteemeth [H8799] H1270 iron H8401 as straw H5154 , and brass H7539 as rotten H6086 wood.

28 H1121 The arrow H7198 H1272 cannot make him flee [H8686] H68 : slingstones H7050 H2015 are turned [H8738] H7179 with him into stubble.

29 H8455 Darts H2803 are counted [H8738] H7179 as stubble H7832 : he laugheth [H8799] H7494 at the shaking H3591 of a spear.

30 H2303 Sharp H2789 stones H7502 are under him: he spreadeth [H8799] H2742 sharp pointed things H2916 upon the mire.

31 H4688 He maketh the deep H7570 to boil [H8686] H5518 like a pot H7760 : he maketh [H8799] H3220 the sea H4841 like a pot of ointment.

32 H5410 He maketh a path H215 to shine [H8686] H310 after H2803 him; one would think [H8799] H8415 the deep H7872 to be hoary.

33 H6083 Upon earth H4915 there is not his like H6213 , who is made [H8803] H1097 without H2844 fear.

34 H7200 He beholdeth [H8799] H1364 all high H4428 things : he is a king H1121 over all the children H7830 of pride.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Canst thou draw out Dragon with a hook, or put a bandage round his nostrils? ² Or canst thou fasten a ring in his snout, or bore his lip for a jewel? ³ Will he speak to thee with entreaties; with soothing supplications? ⁴ Will he make a covenant with thee? And wilt thou take him for a perpetual servant? ⁵ Wilt thou play with him as with a bird, or bind him as a sparrow for a child? ⁶ Do the nations feed upon him, or the Phoenicians divide him among them? ⁷ With their whole fleet they could not carry the first skin of his tail, nor his head in their fishing barks. ⁸ Wilt thou lay thine hand on him, recollecting the battle made by his mouth? Do not so again. ⁹ Hast thou not seen him? Hast thou not been amazed at what is said of him? Hast thou not been afraid that he was prepared against me? ¹⁰ But who is there, who hath risen up against me; ¹¹ or who can rise up against me and stand to it? If the whole world is mine, ¹² I cannot be put to silence by him. On the account of his power one may pity his equal. ¹³ Who can strip off his outer robe, or who can come within the folds of his breast plate? ¹⁴ Who can open the doors of his mouth? His teeth are encompassed with terror. ¹⁵ His scales are shields of brass; and his ligature, like a smyrite stone. ¹⁶ They are glued one to another, so that no air may pass through to him. ¹⁷ They are to adhere close to each other; they stick so close that they cannot be torn asunder. ¹⁸ At his sneezing lightnings flash: and his eyes have the lustre of the morning star. ¹⁹ Out of his mouth issue as it were burning lamps; and flaky flames, in appearance, are belched out. ²⁰ From his nostrils issueth the smoke of a furnace, ²¹ flaming with a fire of burning coals. His animal life is glowing coals; and a flame proceedeth out of his mouth. ²² In his neck, strength maketh its abode; and destruction runneth before him. ²³ The flesh of his body is glued together; it is so abundant that he cannot be shaken. ²⁴ His heart is hard as a stone, and firm as an immoveable anvil. ²⁵ When he turneth himself about, all the four footed beasts on the earth shrink with fear. Though spears oppose him, ²⁶ they effect nothing; for with regard to the lance and the breast plate, ²⁷ he considereth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. ²⁸ The bow of steel cannot wound him; and stones from a sling he considereth as grass. ²⁹ Battering rams are accounted as stubble; and he laugheth at the shock of eruptive fire. ³⁰ His bed is sharp pointed obelisks; and all the gold in the sea under him, is but as dirt. ³¹ He causeth the deep to boil like a cauldron; and considereth the sea as a pot of ointment. ³² The deepest gulf of the sea he accounteth his captive; and reckoneth the abyss itself as his parade. ³³ Upon the earth there is not his fellow; made to be insulted only by my angels. ³⁴ He beholdeth every thing that is high; and he is king over all that are in the waters.

24 H3820 His heart H3332 is as firm H68 as a stone; H3332 Yea, firm H8482 as the nether H6400 millstone.

25 H7613 When he raiseth himself up, H352 the mighty H1481 are afraid: H7667 By reason of consternation H2398 they are beside themselves.

26 H5381 If one lay H2719 at him with the sword, H6965 it cannot avail; H2595 Nor the spear, H4551 the dart, H8302 nor the pointed shaft.

27 H2803 He counteth H1270 iron H8401 as straw, H5154 And brass H7539 as rotten H6086 wood.

28 H1121 The arrow H1272 cannot make him flee: H68 Sling-stones H2015 are turned H7179 with him into stubble.

29 H8455 Clubs H2803 are counted H7179 as stubble: H7832 He laugheth H7494 at the rushing H3591 of the javelin.

30 H2303 His underparts are like sharp H2789 potsherds: H7502 He spreadeth H2742 as it were a threshing-wain H2916 upon the mire.

31 H4688 He maketh the deep H7570 to boil H5518 like a pot: H7760 He maketh H3220 the sea H4841 like a pot of ointment.

32 H5410 He maketh a path H215 to shine H310 after H2803 him; One would think H8415 the deep H7872 to be hoary.

33 H6083 Upon earth H4915 there is not his like, H6213 That is made H1097 without H2844 fear.

34 H7200 He beholdeth H1364 everything that is high: H4428 He is king H1121 over all the sons H7830 of pride.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Canst thou draw out the Crocodile with a fish–hook?

Wilt thou take him for a life–long servant? ⁵ Wilt thou sport with him, as with a little bird? Or wilt thou bind him, for thy maidens? ⁶ Shall the companions bargain over him? or will they part him among the traders? ⁷ Wilt thou fill, with darts, his skin? or, with fish–spears, his head? ⁸ Lay thou upon him thy hand, remember the battle––no more! ⁹ Lo! any hope of him, hath been found deceptive, Even at the sight of him, shall not one be overwhelmed? ¹⁰ None so bold, that he will rouse him! Who then is he that, before me, can stand?
¹¹ Who hath forestalled me, that I may repay him? Under all the heavens, mine it is! ¹² I will not pass by in silence his parts, or the matter of strength, or the grace of his armour. ¹³ Who hath removed his outer garment, through his double row of teeth, who would enter? ¹⁴ The doors of his face, who hath opened? The circles of his teeth, are a terror! ¹⁵ A pride, are his arched sides, closed up, with a firm seal; ¹⁶ One to another, they join, and, air, cannot enter between them; ¹⁷ Each to its fellow, they cleave, they grasp each other, and cannot be parted; ¹⁸ His sneezings, flash forth light, and, his eyes, are like the eyelashes of the dawn; ¹⁹ Out of his mouth, torches dart forth, sparks of fire, escape; ²⁰ Out of his nostrils, proceedeth smoke, like a blown pot and rushes; ²¹ His breath, setteth coals ablaze, and, a flame, out of his mouth, proceedeth; ²² In his neck, lodgeth strength, and, before him, danceth dismay; ²³ The dewlaps of his flesh, cleave together, hardened upon him, they cannot be moved; ²⁴ His heart, is hardened like a stone, yea hardened, like the nether millstone; ²⁵ At his rising up, mighty men are afraid, by reason of terror, they are beside themselves: ²⁶ As for him that assaileth him, the sword availeth not, spear, dart, or coat of mail: ²⁷ He counteth iron as broken straw, and bronze as rotten wood: ²⁸ The arrow, will not make him flee, Into chaff, are sling–stones changed by him: ²⁹ As a straw, is a club accounted, and he laugheth at the whir of the javelin; ³⁰ His underparts, are points of potsherd, a pointed threshing roller spreadeth out upon the slime: ³¹ He causeth to boil, as a cauldron, the raging deep, the sea, he maketh like a brewing vessel: ³² After him, he lighteth up a path, one might think the resounding deep to be hoary! ³³ There is not––upon the dust––his like, that hath been made to be without fear; ³⁴ Every thing lofty, he beholdeth, he, is king over all ravenous beasts.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Can you draw out the leviathan with a fishhook, Or hold down his tongue with a line? ² Can you place a rush rope in his nose, Or pierce his cheek with a gaff? ³ Would he make many supplications to you, Or speak to you with tender words? ⁴ Would he contract a covenant with you That you may take him as a servant for the eon? ⁵ Can you sport with him as with a bird, Or tie him up for your maidens? ⁶ Would partners bargain over him That they may divide him up among traffickers? ⁷ Can you fill his skin with barbs Or his head with the fishing spear? ⁸ Place your palm on him; Remember the battle; you would certainly not do it again! ⁹ Behold, one's hope is proved a lie; Even at the sight of him one is hurled down. ¹⁰ Is he not too cruel for one to rouse him? Who then is he who can station himself before Me? ¹¹ Who can confront Me and would fare well? Whatever is under the entire heavens, it is Mine. ¹² I shall not keep silence about his constitution Or the matter of his grand mastery that is without appraisal. ¹³ Who has rolled back his surface garment? Who can enter through his double cuirass? ¹⁴ Who has opened the doors of his face? All around his teeth is dread. ¹⁵ His body is made of channels of shields, Closed by a constricting seal. ¹⁶ One to the other, they are so close That the wind cannot enter between them. ¹⁷ They are clung together each to its fellow; They seize each other and cannot be parted. ¹⁸ His sneezings make the light irradiate, And his eyes are like the eyelids of the dawn. ¹⁹ Flaming torches go out from his mouth; Darts of fire escape forth. ²⁰ Out from his snorting nostrils smoke goes forth As from a steaming pannier or burning rushes. ²¹ His soul sets embers aflame, And a blaze goes forth from his mouth. ²² In his neck lodges strength, And consternation romps before him. ²³ The flaps of his flesh cling together, Solidly set upon him; it is immovable. ²⁴ His heart is solidly set like stone, Even solidly set like the nether grindstone. ²⁵ At his lifting up, the subjectors shrink back; At his breaking forth, they recede. ²⁶ Though the sword overtakes him, it does not avail, As also the spear, the dagger and the short arrow. ²⁷ He reckons iron as crushed straw, Copper as rotten wood. ²⁸ The son of the bow cannot make him run away; Sling stones are turned to straw for him. ²⁹ The bludgeon is reckoned by him as straw, And he ridicules the whizzing of the dart. ³⁰ His under parts are sharp pieces of shard; He strews spike marks on the mud. ³¹ He makes the shadowy deep boil like a pot; He makes the sea appear like foaming ointment. ³² Behind him he makes his track resplendent; One would reckon the abyss to be greyhaired. ³³ There is no one on the soil comparable to him, Who was made to be without dismay. ³⁴ He stares down on every haughty creature; He is king over every strutting beast.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Is it possible for Leviathan to be pulled out with a fish-hook, or for a hook to be put through the bone of his mouth? ² Will you put a cord into his nose, or take him away with a cord round his tongue? ³ Will he make prayers to you, or say soft words to you? ⁴ Will he make an agreement with you, so that you may take him as a servant for ever? ⁵ Will you make sport with him, as with a bird? or put him in chains for your young women? ⁶ Will the fishermen make profit out of him? will they have him cut up for the traders? ⁷ Will you put sharp-pointed irons into his skin, or fish-spears into his head? ⁸ Only put your hand on him, and see what a fight you will have; you will not do it again! ⁹ Truly, the hope of his attacker is false; he is overcome even on seeing him! ¹⁰ He is so cruel that no one is ready to go against him. Who then is able to keep his place before me? ¹¹ Who ever went against me, and got the better of me? There is no one under heaven! ¹² I will not keep quiet about the parts of his body, or about his power, and the strength of his frame. ¹³ Who has ever taken off his outer skin? who may come inside his inner coat of iron? ¹⁴ Who has made open the doors of his face? Fear is round about his teeth. ¹⁵ His back is made of lines of plates, joined tight together, one against the other, like a stamp. ¹⁶ One is so near to the other that no air may come between them. ¹⁷ They take a grip of one another; they are joined together, so that they may not be parted. ¹⁸ His sneezings give out flames, and his eyes are like the eyes of the dawn. ¹⁹ Out of his mouth go burning lights, and flames of fire are jumping up. ²⁰ Smoke comes out of his nose, like a pot boiling on the fire. ²¹ His breath puts fire to coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth. ²² Strength is in his neck, and fear goes dancing before him. ²³ The plates of his flesh are joined together, fixed, and not to be moved. ²⁴ His heart is as strong as a stone, hard as the lower crushing-stone. ²⁵ When he gets ready for the fight, the strong are overcome with fear. ²⁶ The sword may come near him but is not able to go through him; the spear, or the arrow, or the sharp-pointed iron. ²⁷ Iron is to him as dry grass, and brass as soft wood. ²⁸ The arrow is not able to put him to flight: stones are no more to him than dry stems. ²⁹ A thick stick is no better than a leaf of grass, and he makes sport of the onrush of the spear. ³⁰ Under him are sharp edges of broken pots: as if he was pulling a grain-crushing instrument over the wet earth. ³¹ The deep is boiling like a pot of spices, and the sea like a perfume-vessel. ³² After him his way is shining, so that the deep seems white. ³³ On earth there is not another like him, who is made without fear. ³⁴ Everything which is high goes in fear of him; he is king over all the sons of pride.

22 H5797 There is strength H3885 in H6677 his neck. H1670 Terror H1750 dances H6440 before him.

23 H4651 The flakes H1320 of his flesh H1692 are joined together. H3332 They are firm H4131 on him. They can't be moved.

24 H3820 His heart H3332 is as firm H68 as a stone, H3332 yes, firm H8482 as the lower H6400 millstone.

25 H7613 When he raises himself up, H352 the mighty H1481 are afraid. H7667 They retreat H2398 before his thrashing.

26 H5381 If one attacks H2719 him with the sword, H6965 it can't prevail; H2595 nor the spear, H4551 the dart, H8302 nor the pointed shaft.

27 H2803 He counts H1270 iron H8401 as straw; H5154 and brass H7539 as rotten H6086 wood.

28 H1121 The arrow H1272 can't make him flee. H68 Sling H2015 stones are like H7179 chaff to him.

29 H8455 Clubs H2803 are counted H7179 as stubble. H7832 He laughs H7494 at the rushing H3591 of the javelin.

30 H2303 His undersides are like sharp H2789 potsherds, H7502 leaving H2916 a trail in the mud H2742 like a threshing sledge.

31 H4688 He makes the deep H7570 to boil H5518 like a pot. H7760 He makes H3220 the sea H4841 like a pot of ointment.

32 H5410 He makes a path H215 shine H310 after H2803 him. One would think H8415 the deep had white hair.

33 H6083 On earth H4915 there is not his equal, H6213 that is made H1097 without H2844 fear.

34 H7200 He sees H1364 everything that is high. H4428 He is king H1121 over all the sons H7830 of pride."

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ On Leviathan “Can you draw Leviathan out of the water with a hook, or tie down his tongue with a rope? ² Can you attach a bridle to his snout, or pierce his jaw with a hook? ³ Will he make many supplications to you, or will he beg you for mercy? ⁴ Will he try to make a deal with you, so that you may take him in servitude forever? ⁵ “Will you play with him like a pet bird? Will you put a leash on him for your little girls? ⁶ Will your business be able to buy him, Will you divide him among your merchant friends? ⁷ Will you fill his flesh with harpoons, or his head with lances? ⁸ Lay your hand on him, and you’ll remember the struggle. You’ll never do that again! ⁹ “Look! Anyone’s hope to capture him will prove itself false; anyone would be terrified just by looking at him. ¹⁰ No one is fierce enough to dare to arouse him. “Who, then, can stand in my presence and face me? ¹¹ Who can take me to court and be reconciled to me? All of heaven is mine. ¹² “I won’t be silent concerning his limbs, his mighty strength, and orderly frame. ¹³ Who can strip off his outer armor? Who can approach him with a bridle? ¹⁴ Who dares to open his mouth, since it is ringed with his terrible teeth! ¹⁵ His protective scales are his pride, they lie sealed tightly together. ¹⁶ Each one is so close to the other that not even air comes in between them. ¹⁷ Each is attached to the other, grasping each other so they cannot be separated. ¹⁸ “His snorting releases flashes of light; his eyes are like the rays of the dawn. ¹⁹ Flames blaze from his mouth; streams of sparking fire fly out. ²⁰ Smoke billows from his nostrils; like a boiling pot or burning reeds. ²¹ His breath can ignite coal; and flames proceed from his mouth. ²² “His neck is so powerful that all who meet him are terrified. ²³ There is no flaw in his body’s armor; it is firmly fixed on him and unbreachable. ²⁴ His heart is as strong as stone, it is as hard as a lower millstone. ²⁵ When he rears up, the mighty are terrified; they are bewildered as he thrashes about. ²⁶ “Thrusting at him with a sword won’t be effective, nor will spears, darts, or javelins. ²⁷ He regards iron like straw, and hardened bronze like a dead tree. ²⁸ Arrows won’t make him flee; stones from a sling are only pebbles to him. ²⁹ Clubs are like twigs; he laughs at the whoosh of the javelin. ³⁰ “Beneath him he is armored as with sharp potsherds; he tears through muddy ground like a threshing sledge through grain. ³¹ He causes the deep to boil like water in a pot, and churns the sea like one stirs ointment. ³² The sea is luminescent behind him; his wake turns the sea white, like those with gray hair. ³³ “There’s nothing like him on earth; he was created without the ability to fear. ³⁴ He looks down on everything that is high; he rules over every kind of pride.”

⁹ Behold, the hope of him is in vain. Will not a man be cast down even at the sight of him? ¹⁰ None is so fierce that he dare stir him up. Who then is he who can stand before me?
¹¹ Who has first given to me, that I should repay him? Under the whole heaven is mine.

³⁰ His underparts are like sharp earthen vessels. He spreads out as a threshing-wagon upon the mud. ³¹ He makes the deep to boil like a pot. He makes the sea like a pot of ointment. ³² He makes a path to shine after him. A man would think the deep to be hoary.

Luther1545⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Kannst du den Leviathan ziehen mit dem Hamen und seine Zunge mit einem Strick fassen? ² Kannst du ihm eine Angel in die Nase legen und mit einem Stachel ihm die Backen durchbohren? ³ Meinest du, er werde dir viel Flehens machen oder dir heucheln? ⁴ Meinest du, daß er einen Bund mit dir machen werde, daß du ihn immer zum Knecht habest? ⁵ Kannst du mit ihm spielen wie mit einem Vogel, oder ihn deinen Dirnen binden? ⁶ Meinest du, die Gesellschaften werden ihn zerschneiden, daß er unter die Kaufleute zerteilet wird? ⁷ Kannst du das Netz füllen mit seiner Haut und die Fischreusen mit seinem Kopf? ⁸ Wenn du deine Hand an ihn legst, so gedenke, daß ein Streit sei, den du nicht ausführen wirst. ⁹ Siehe, seine Hoffnung wird ihm fehlen; und wenn er sein ansichtig wird, schwinget er sich dahin. ¹⁰ Niemand ist so kühn, der ihn reizen darf; wer ist denn, der vor mir stehen könne? ¹¹ Wer hat mir was zuvor getan, daß ich's ihm vergelte? Es ist mein, was unter allen Himmeln ist. ¹² Dazu muß ich nun sagen, wie groß, wie mächtig und wohl geschaffen er ist. ¹³ Wer kann ihm sein Kleid aufdecken?

Schrecklich stehen seine Zähne umher. ¹⁵ Seine stolzen Schuppen sind wie feste Schilde, fest und enge ineinander. ¹⁶ Eine rührt an die andere, daß nicht ein Lüftlein dazwischengehet. ¹⁷ Es hängt eine an der andern, und halten sich zusammen, daß sie sich nicht voneinander trennen. ¹⁸ Sein Niesen glänzet wie ein Licht; seine Augen sind wie die Augenlider der Morgenröte. ¹⁹ Aus seinem Munde fahren Fackeln, und feurige Funken schießen heraus. ²⁰ Aus seiner Nase gehet Rauch wie von heißen Töpfen und Kessel. ²¹ Sein Odem ist wie lichte Lohe, und aus seinem Munde gehen Flammen. ²² Er hat einen starken Hals; und ist seine Lust, wo er etwas verderbet. ²³ Die Gliedmaßen seines Fleisches hangen aneinander und halten hart an ihm, daß er nicht zerfallen kann. ²⁴ Sein Herz ist so hart wie ein Stein und so fest wie ein Stück vom untersten Mühlstein. ²⁵ Wenn er sich erhebt, so entsetzen sich die Starken; und wenn er daherbricht, so ist keine Gnade da. ²⁶ Wenn man zu ihm will mit dem Schwert, so regt er sich nicht; oder mit Spieß, Geschoß und Panzer. ²⁷ Er achtet Eisen wie Stroh und Erz wie faul Holz. ²⁸ Kein Pfeil wird ihn verjagen; die Schleudersteine sind wie Stoppeln. ²⁹ Den Hammer achtet er wie Stoppeln; er spottet der bebenden Lanze. ³⁰ Unter ihm liegen scharfe Steine und fährt über die scharfen Felsen wie über Kot. ³¹ Er macht, daß das tiefe Meer siedet wie ein Topf, und rührt es ineinander, wie man eine Salbe menget. ³² Nach ihm leuchtet der Weg, er macht die Tiefe ganz grau. ³³ Auf Erden ist ihm niemand zu gleichen; er ist gemacht ohne Furcht zu sein. ³⁴ Er verachtet alles, was hoch ist; er ist ein König über alle Stolzen.

Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ¶ Ne l’as-tu pas vu? N’as-tu pas été surpris de ce qui a été dit? ² N’as-tu pas été effrayé parce que je l’avais préparé? car quel est celui qui s’était opposé à moi? ³ Et qui donc après m’avoir contredit persistera, puisque tout ce que le ciel recouvre m’appartient? ⁴ Je ne me tairai point à cause lui, et la puissance de mes paroles, justes à son regard, excitera sa compassion. ⁵ Qui découvrira la face que voile son vêtement? qui pénétrera jusqu’au fond de sa poitrine? ⁶ Qui ouvrira les portes qui le cachent? Le grincement de ses dents inspire à l’entour la terreur. ⁷ Ses entrailles sont des aspics d’airain; son ensemble est comme de la pierre d’émeri. ⁸ Les aspérités de son corps sont tout d’une pièce; jamais l’esprit de l’a traversé. ⁹ Tel un homme est uni à son frère, tels ces deux frères sont toujours inséparables. ¹⁰ S’il éternue des étincelles jaillissent; ses yeux brillent comme l’étoile du matin. ¹¹ ¶ Sa bouche vomit comme des lampes, leur flamme se répand à l’entour, comme des brasiers pleins de feu. ¹² De ses narines sort une fumée semblable à celle d’une fournaise où brûle de l’anthracite. ¹³ Son âme est de charbon embrasé; sa bouche exhale du feu. ¹⁴ La force réside en son encolure; la perdition court devant lui. ¹⁵ Les chairs de son corps forment un bloc; elles ont été coulées sur lui; rien ne peut les émouvoir. ¹⁶ Son cœur est condensé comme une pierre; il est inflexible comme une enclume. ¹⁷ S’il se retourne, il répand l’effroi, parmi les bêtes fauves qui bondissent sur la terre. ¹⁸ Les javelines, les traits, les cuirasses ne peuvent rien contre lui. ¹⁹ Il fait cas de l’airain comme du bois pourri, et du fer comme de la paille. ²⁰ La flèche ne le percera pas; la pierre d’une fronde lui fait l’effet d’un brin d’herbe. ²¹ Les marteaux sont pour lui comme des joncs; il rit des tremblements de terre et des éruptions de flammes. ²² Il a pour couche des obélisques aigus; l’or de la mer qu’il foule aux pieds lui semble une boue dont on ne dit rien. ²³ Il fait bouillir l’abîme comme une marmite; il prend la mer pour un vase à parfums, ²⁴ Le Tartare de l’abîme pour un captif, l’abîme pour un lieu de promenade. ²⁵ ²⁶ ²⁷ ²⁸ ²⁹ ³⁰ ³¹ ³² ³³ ³⁴

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹
(40:20) Tireras-tu le léviathan avec un hameçon, et avec une corde lui feras-tu y enfoncer sa langue? ² (40:21) Lui mettras-tu un jonc dans le nez, et lui perceras-tu la mâchoire avec un crochet? ³ (40:22) Te fera-t-il beaucoup de supplications, ou te dira-t-il des choses douces? ⁴ (40:23) une alliance avec toi? Le prendras-tu comme un serviteur à toujours? ⁵ (40:24) Joueras-tu avec lui comme avec un oiseau, et l'attacheras-tu pour tes jeunes filles? ⁶ (40:25) Des associés feront-ils trafic de lui? Le partageront-ils entre des marchands? ⁷ (40:26) Rempliras-tu sa peau de dards, et sa tête de harpons à poissons? ⁸ (40:27) Mets ta main sur lui: souviens-toi de la bataille, -n'y reviens pas! ⁹ (41:1) Voici, on est déçu dans son attente; même à sa vue, n'est-on pas terrassé? ¹⁰ (41:1) Nul n'est assez hardi pour le réveiller; et qui est celui qui se présentera devant moi? ¹¹
(41:2) Qui m'a prévenu, et je lui rendrai? Tout ce qui est sous les cieux est à moi. ¹² (41:3) Je ne me tairai pas sur ses membres, sur ce qui concerne ses forces et sur la beauté de sa structure. ¹³ (41:4) Qui a mis à découvert le dessus de son vêtement? Qui pénétrera dans sa double mâchoire? ¹⁴ (41:5) Qui ouvrira les portes de son museau? Autour de ses dents est la terreur! ¹⁵ (41:6) est magnifique par la force de ses boucliers étroitement unis comme par un sceau; ¹⁶ (41:7) L'un touche à l'autre, et le vent ne pénétrerait pas entre eux; ¹⁷ (41:8) L'un est attaché à l'autre, ils se tiennent et ne se séparent pas. ¹⁸ (41:9) Ses éternûments font jaillir la lumière, et ses yeux sont comme les paupières de l'aurore. ¹⁹ (41:10) Des flammes sortent de sa gueule; des étincelles de feu s'en échappent; ²⁰ (41:11) Une fumée sort de ses narines comme d'un pot qui bouillonne, comme d'une chaudière ardente; ²¹ (41:12) Son souffle allumerait des charbons, et une flamme sort de sa gueule. ²² (41:13) Dans son cou loge la force, et la frayeur danse devant lui. ²³ (41:14) Les plis de sa chair adhèrent ensemble: coulés sur lui, ils ne bougent pas; ²⁴ (41:15) Son coeur est dur comme une pierre, dur comme la meule inférieure. ²⁵ (41:16) Quand il se lève, les forts ont peur, ils s'enfuient saisis d'épouvante. ²⁶ (41:17) Quand on l'atteint de l'épée, elle n'a aucun effet, ni la lance, ni le dard, ni la cuirasse. ²⁷ (41:18) Il estime le fer comme de la paille, l'airain comme du bois vermoulu. ²⁸ (41:19) La flèche ne le met pas en fuite; les pierres de fronde se changent pour lui en du chaume. ²⁹ (41:20) Il estime la massue comme du chaume, et il se rit du bruit du javelot. ³⁰ (41:21) Sous lui sont des tessons pointus; il étend une herse sur la vase. ³¹ (41:22) Il fait bouillonner l'eau profonde comme une marmite, il fait de la mer comme un pot d'onguent; ³² (41:23) Il fait briller après lui son sillage; on prendrait l'abîme pour des cheveux gris. ³³ (41:24) Il n'a pas son semblable sur la terre: il a été fait pour être sans peur. ³⁴ (41:25) Il regarde tout ce qui est élevé; il est roi sur tous les fiers animaux.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Il n'y a point d'homme assez courageux pour le réveiller; qui est-ce donc qui se présentera devant moi ? ² Qui est-ce qui m'a prévenu, et je le lui rendrai ? Ce qui est sous tous les cieux est à moi. ³ Je ne me tairai point de ses membres, ni de ce qui concerne ses forces, ni de la grâce de l'arrangement des parties de son corps. ⁴ Qui est-ce qui découvrira le dessus de sa couverture, et se jettera entre les deux branches de son mors ? ⁵ Qui est-ce qui ouvrira les portes de sa gueule ? La terreur se tient autour de ses dents. ⁶ Les lames de ses boucliers ne sont que magnificence; elles sont étroitement serrées comme avec un cachet. ⁷ L'une approche de l'autre, et le vent n'entre point entre-deux. ⁸ Elles sont jointes l'une à l'autre, elles s'entretiennent, et ne se séparent point. ⁹ Ses éternuements éclaireraient la lumière, et ses yeux sont comme les paupières de l'aube du jour. ¹⁰ Des flambeaux sortent de sa bouche, et il en rejaillit des étincelles de feu. ¹¹ Une fumée sort de ses narines comme d'un pot bouillant, ou d'une chaudière. ¹² Son souffle enflammerait des charbons, et une flamme sort de sa gueule. ¹³ La force est dans son cou, et la terreur marche devant lui. ¹⁴ Sa chair est ferme, tout est massif en lui, rien n'y branle. ¹⁵ Son coeur est dur comme une pierre, même comme une pièce de la meule de dessous. ¹⁶ Les plus forts tremblent quand il s'élève, et ils ne savent où ils en sont, voyant comme il rompt tout. ¹⁷ Qui s'en approchera avec l'épée ? ni elle, ni la lance, ni le dard, ni la cuirasse, ne pourront point subsister devant lui. ¹⁸ Il ne tient pas plus de compte du fer que de la paille; et de l'airain, que du bois pourri. ¹⁹ La flèche ne le fera point fuir, les pierres d'une fronde lui sont comme du chaume. ²⁰ Il tient les machines de guerre comme des brins de chaume; et il se moque du javelot qu'on lance sur lui. ²¹ Il a sous soi des tests aigus, et il abat sous soi des roseaux pointus en se couchant sur la boue. ²² Il fait bouillonner le gouffre comme une chaudière, et rend semblable la mer à un chaudron de parfumeur. ²³ Il fait reluire après soi son sentier, et on prendrait l'abîme pour une tête blanchie de vieillesse. ²⁴ Il n'y a rien sur la terre qui lui puisse être comparé, ayant été fait pour ne rien craindre. ²⁵ Il voit au-dessous de lui tout ce qu'il y a de plus élevé; il est Roi sur tous les plus fiers animaux. ²⁶ ²⁷ ²⁸ ²⁹ ³⁰ ³¹ ³² ³³ ³⁴

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Prendras-tu le crocodile à l'hameçon? Saisiras-tu sa langue avec une corde? ² Mettras-tu un jonc dans ses narines? Lui perceras-tu la mâchoire avec un crochet? ³ Te pressera-t-il de supplication? Te parlera-t-il d'une voix douce? ⁴ Fera-t-il une alliance avec toi, Pour devenir à toujours ton esclave? ⁵ Joueras-tu avec lui comme avec un oiseau? L'attacheras-tu pour amuser tes jeunes filles? ⁶ Les pêcheurs en trafiquent-ils? Le partagent-ils entre les marchands? ⁷ Couvriras-tu sa peau de dards, Et sa tête de harpons? ⁸ Dresse ta main contre lui, Et tu ne t'aviseras plus de l'attaquer. ⁹ Voici, on est trompé dans son attente; A son seul aspect n'est-on pas terrassé? ¹⁰ Nul n'est assez hardi pour l'exciter; Qui donc me résisterait en face? ¹¹ De qui suis-je le débiteur? Je le paierai. Sous le ciel tout m'appartient. ¹² Je veux encore parler de ses membres, Et de sa force, et de la beauté de sa structure. ¹³ Qui soulèvera son vêtement? Qui pénétrera entre ses mâchoires? ¹⁴ Qui ouvrira les portes de sa gueule? Autour de ses dents habite la terreur. ¹⁵ Ses magnifiques et puissants boucliers Sont unis ensemble comme par un sceau; ¹⁶ Ils se serrent l'un contre l'autre, Et l'air ne passerait pas entre eux; ¹⁷ Ce sont des frères qui s'embrassent, Se saisissent, demeurent inséparables. ¹⁸ Ses éternuements font briller la lumière; Ses yeux sont comme les paupières de l'aurore. ¹⁹ Des flammes jaillissent de sa bouche, Des étincelles de feu s'en échappent. ²⁰ Une fumée sort de ses narines, Comme d'un vase qui bout, d'une chaudière ardente. ²¹ Son souffle allume les charbons, Sa gueule lance la flamme. ²² La force a son cou pour demeure, Et l'effroi bondit au-devant de lui. ²³ Ses parties charnues tiennent ensemble, Fondues sur lui, inébranlables. ²⁴ Son coeur est dur comme la pierre, Dur comme la meule inférieure. ²⁵ Quand il se lève, les plus vaillants ont peur, Et l'épouvante les fait fuir. ²⁶ C'est en vain qu'on l'attaque avec l'épée; La lance, le javelot, la cuirasse, ne servent à rien. ²⁷ Il regarde le fer comme de la paille, L'airain comme du bois pourri. ²⁸ La flèche ne le met pas en fuite, Les pierres de la fronde sont pour lui du chaume. ²⁹ Il ne voit dans la massue qu'un brin de paille, Il rit au sifflement des dards. ³⁰ Sous son ventre sont des pointes aiguës: On dirait une herse qu'il étend sur le limon. ³¹ Il fait bouillir le fond de la mer comme une chaudière, Il l'agite comme un vase rempli de parfums. ³² Il laisse après lui un sentier lumineux; L'abîme prend la chevelure d'un vieillard. ³³ Sur la terre nul n'est son maître; Il a été créé pour ne rien craindre. ³⁴ Il regarde avec dédain tout ce qui est élevé, Il est le roi des plus fiers animaux.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Dapatkah kautangkap si buaya Lewiatan, hanya dengan sebuah pancing ikan? Dapatkah lidahnya kautambat dengan tali-tali pengikat? ² Dapatkah engkau memasang tali pada hidungnya ataupun kait besi pada rahangnya? ³ Mungkinkah ia mohon padamu untuk dibebaskan? atau berunding denganmu, minta belas kasihan? ⁴ Mungkinkah ia membuat persetujuan denganmu, dan berjanji akan selalu melayanimu? ⁵ Mungkinkah engkau mengikatnya seperti burung peliharaan, yang menyenangkan hamba-hamba perempuan? ⁶ Mungkinkah ia diperdagangkan oleh nelayan-nelayan dan dibagi-bagikan di antara para pedagang? ⁷ Dapatkah kautusuk kulitnya dengan tombak bermata tiga atau kaulempari dia dengan lembing yang menembus kepalanya? ⁸ Sentuhlah dia sekali saja, dan tak akan lagi engkau mengulanginya; pertarungan itu tak akan kaulupakan selama-lamanya. ⁹ Setiap orang yang melihat Lewiatan, akan menjadi lemah lalu jatuh pingsan. ¹⁰ Ia ganas bila dibangunkan dari tidurnya; tak seorang pun berani berdiri di hadapannya. ¹¹ Siapa yang dapat menyerangnya tanpa kena cedera? Di dunia ini tak ada yang sanggup melakukannya. ¹² Marilah Kuceritakan tentang anggota badan Lewiatan, tentang kekuatannya dan bentuknya yang tampan. ¹³ Tak seorang pun dapat mengoyakkan baju luarnya atau menembus baju perang yang dipakainya. ¹⁴ Siapa dapat membuka moncongnya yang kuat, berisi gigi-gigi yang dahsyat? ¹⁵ Bagai perisai tersusun, itulah punggungnya terlekat rapat, seperti batu kerasnya. ¹⁶ Tindih-menindih, terikat erat, sehingga angin pun tak dapat masuk menyelinap. ¹⁷ Perisai itu begitu kuat bertautan sehingga tak mungkin diceraikan. ¹⁸ Apabila Lewiatan bersin, berpijaran cahaya; matanya berkilau bagai terbitnya sang surya. ¹⁹ Lidah api menghambur dari mulutnya; bunga api berpancaran ke mana-mana. ²⁰ Asap mengepul dari dalam hidungnya, seperti asap kayu bakar di bawah belanga. ²¹ Napasnya menyalakan bara; nyala api keluar dari mulutnya. ²² Tengkuknya demikian kuatnya, sehingga semuanya ketakutan di hadapannya. ²³ Tak ada tempat lemah pada kulitnya; tak mungkin pecah karena sekeras baja. ²⁴ Hatinya seteguh batu, tak kenal bimbang kokoh dan keras seperti batu gilingan. ²⁵ Bila ia bangkit, orang terkuat pun kehilangan keberanian, dibuat tak berdaya karena sangat ketakutan. ²⁶ Tak ada pedang yang dapat melukainya; tombak, panah ataupun lembing tak dapat menyakitinya. ²⁷ Besi dianggapnya sehalus rerumputan dan tembaga selunak kayu bercendawan. ²⁸ Tak ada panah yang dapat menghalau dia; batu yang dilemparkan kepadanya seolah-olah jerami saja. ²⁹ Gada dianggapnya sehelai rumput kering; ia tertawa jika orang melemparkan lembing. ³⁰ Sisik di perutnya seperti beling yang runcing ujungnya. Bagai alat penebah ia mengorek lumpur dan membelahnya. ³¹ Laut dikocoknya sehingga menyerupai air mendidih; seperti panci pemasak minyak yang berbuih-buih. ³² Ia meninggalkan bekas tapak kaki yang bercahaya, laut diubahnya menjadi buih yang putih warnanya. ³³ Di atas bumi tak ada tandingannya; makhluk yang tak kenal takut, itulah dia! ³⁴ Binatang yang paling megah pun dipandangnya hina; di antara segala binatang buas, dialah raja."

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Trarrai tu fuori il leviatan con l’amo, O con una fune che tu gli avrai calata sotto alla lingua? ² Gli metterai tu un uncino al muso? Gli forerai tu le mascelle con una spina? ³ Userà egli molti preghi teco? Ti parlerà egli con lusinghe? ⁴ Patteggerà egli teco, Che tu lo prenda per servo in perpetuo? ⁵ Scherzerai tu con lui, come con un uccello? E lo legherai tu con un filo, per darlo alle tue fanciulle? ⁶ I compagni ne faranno essi un convito? Lo spartiranno essi fra i mercatanti? ⁷ Gli empirai tu la pelle di roncigli, E la testa di raffi da pescare? ⁸ Pongli pur la mano addosso, Tu non ricorderai mai più la guerra. ⁹ Ecco, la speranza di pigliarlo è fallace; Anzi l’uomo non sarà egli atterrato, solo a vederlo? ¹⁰ Non vi è alcuno così feroce, che ardisca risvegliarlo; E chi potrà presentarsi davanti a me? ¹¹ Chi mi ha prevenuto in darmi cosa alcuna? ed io gliela renderò; Quello che è sotto tutti i cieli è mio. ¹² Io non tacerò le membra di quello, Nè ciò ch’è delle sue forze, nè la grazia della sua disposizione. ¹³ Chi scoprirà il disopra della sua coverta? Chi verrà a lui con le sue doppie redini? ¹⁴ Chi aprirà gli usci del suo muso? Lo spavento è d’intorno a’ suoi denti. ¹⁵ I suoi forti scudi sono una cosa superba; Son serrati strettamente come con un suggello. ¹⁶ L’uno si attiene all’altro, Talchè il vento non può entrar per entro. ¹⁷ Sono attaccati gli uni agli altri, ed accoppiati insieme, E non possono spiccarsi l’uno dall’altro. ¹⁸ I suoi starnuti fanno sfavillar della luce, E i suoi occhi son simili alle palpebre dell’alba. ¹⁹ Della sua gola escono fiaccole, Scintille di fuoco ne sprizzano. ²⁰ Delle sue nari esce un fumo, Come d’una pignatta bollente, o d’una caldaia. ²¹ L’alito suo accende i carboni, E fiamma esce della sua bocca. ²² La possa alberga nel suo collo, E la doglia tresca davanti a lui. ²³ Le polpe della sua carne son compresse; Egli ha la carne addosso soda, e non tremola punto. ²⁴ Il cuor suo è sodo come una pietra, E massiccio come un pezzo della macina disotto. ²⁵ I più forti e valenti hanno paura di lui, quando egli si alza; E si purgano de’ lor peccati, per lo gran fracasso. ²⁶ Nè la spada di chi l’aggiungerà potrà durare, Nè l’asta, nè lo spuntone, nè la corazza: ²⁷ Egli reputa il ferro per paglia, E il rame per legno intarlato. ²⁸ La saetta non lo farà fuggire; Le pietre della frombola si mutano inverso lui in istoppia. ²⁹ Gli ordigni son da lui riputati stoppia; Ed egli si beffa del vibrare dello spuntone. ³⁰ Egli ha sotto di sè de’ testi pungenti; Egli striscia come una trebbia di ferro in sul pantano. ³¹ Egli fa bollire il profondo mare come una caldaia; Egli rende il mare simile a una composizione d’unguentaro. ³² Egli fa rilucere dietro a sè un sentiero, E l’abisso pare canuto. ³³ Non vi è alcuno animale in su la terra che gli possa essere assomigliato, Che sia stato fatto per esser senza paura. ³⁴ Egli riguarda ogni cosa eccelsa, Ed è re sopra tutte le più fiere belve.

Хто підійде коли до двійних його щелепів? ⁶ Двері обличчя його хто відчинить? Навколо зубів його жах! ⁷ Його спина канали щитів, поєднання їх крем'яная печать. ⁸ Одне до одного доходить, а вітер між ними не пройде. ⁹ Одне до одного притверджені, сполучені, і не відділяться. ¹⁰ Його чхання засвічує світло, а очі його як повіки зорі світової! ¹¹ Бухає полум'я з пащі його, вириваються іскри огненні! ¹² Із ніздер його валить дим, немов з того горшка, що кипить та біжить. ¹³ Його подих розпалює вугіль, і бухає полум'я з пащі його. ¹⁴ Сила ночує на шиї його, а страх перед ним утікає. ¹⁵ М'ясо нутра його міцно тримається, воно в ньому тверде, не хитається. ¹⁶ Його серце, мов з каменя вилите, і тверде, як те долішнє жорно! ¹⁷ Як підводиться він, перелякуються силачі, та й ховаються з жаху. ¹⁸ Той меч, що досягне його, не встоїть, ані спис, ані ратище й панцер. ¹⁹ За солому залізо вважає, а мідь за гнилу деревину! ²⁰ Син лука, стріла, не примусит увтікати його, каміння із пращі для нього зміняється в сіно. ²¹ Булаву уважає він за соломинку, і сміється із посвисту ратища. ²² Під ним гостре череп'я, лягає на гостре, немов у болото. ²³ Чинить він, що кипить глибочінь, мов горня, і обертає море в окріп. ²⁴ Стежка світить за ним, а безодня здається йому сивиною. ²⁵ Немає подоби йому на землі, він безстрашним створений, ²⁶ він бачить усе, що високе, він цар над усім пишним звір'ям! ²⁷ ²⁸ ²⁹ ³⁰ ³¹ ³² ³³ ³⁴
