1 “Can you draw out
aLeviathan with a hook,
Or
snare his tongue with a line
which you lower?
2 Can you
aput a reed through his nose,
Or pierce his jaw with a
1 hook?
3 Will he make many supplications to you?
Will he speak softly to you?
4 Will he make a covenant with you?
Will you take him as a servant forever?
5 Will you play with him as
with a bird,
Or will you leash him for your maidens?
6 Will
your companions
1 make a banquet of him?
Will they apportion him among the merchants?
