1 Canst thou draw out leviathan with a hook or with the cord which thou lettest down on his tongue?
2 Canst thou put a hook into his nose or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
3 Will he make many supplications unto thee? Will he speak soft words unto thee?
4 Will he make a covenant with thee that thou shall take him for a slave for ever?
5 Wilt thou play with him as with a bird, or wilt thou tie him up for thy maidens?
6 Shall the companions make a banquet of him? Shall they part him among the merchants?
7 Canst thou cut his skin with knives or his head with a fish spear?
