Canst thou draw outH4900 leviathanH3882 with an hookH2443? or his tongueH3956 with a cordH2256 which thou lettest downH8257? {leviathan: That is, a whale or a whirlepoole} {which…: Heb. which thou drownest?}
Canst thou putH7760 an hookH100 into his noseH639? or boreH5344 his jawH3895 through with a thornH2336?
Will he make manyH7235 supplicationsH8469 unto thee? will he speakH1696 softH7390 words unto thee?
Will he makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with thee? wilt thou takeH3947 him for a servantH5650 for everH5769?
Wilt thou playH7832 with him as with a birdH6833? or wilt thou bindH7194 him for thy maidensH5291?
Shall the companionsH2271 make a banquetH3739 of him? shall they partH2673 him among the merchantsH3669?
Canst thou fillH4390 his skinH5785 with barbed ironsH7905? or his headH7218 with fishH1709 spearsH6767?
LayH7760 thine handH3709 upon him, rememberH2142 the battleH4421, do no moreH3254.
Behold, the hopeH8431 of him is in vainH3576: shall not one be cast downH2904 even at the sightH4758 of him?
None is so fierceH393 that dare stir him upH5782+H5782: who then is able to standH3320 beforeH6440 me?
Who hath preventedH6923 me, that I should repayH7999 him? whatsoever is under the whole heavenH8064 is mine.
I will not concealH2790 his partsH907, nor his powerH1369+H1697, nor his comelyH2433 proportionH6187.
Who can discoverH1540 the faceH6440 of his garmentH3830? or who can comeH935 to him with his doubleH3718 bridleH7448? {with: or, within}
Who can openH6605 the doorsH1817 of his faceH6440? his teethH8127 are terribleH367 round aboutH5439.
His scalesH4043+H650 are his prideH1346, shut up togetherH5462 as with a closeH6862 sealH2368. {scales: Heb. strong pieces of shields}
OneH259 is so nearH5066 to anotherH259, that no airH7307 can comeH935 between them.
They are joinedH1692 oneH376 to anotherH251, they stick togetherH3920, that they cannot be sunderedH6504.
By his neesingsH5846 a lightH216 doth shineH1984, and his eyesH5869 are like the eyelidsH6079 of the morningH7837.
Out of his mouthH6310 goH1980 burning lampsH3940, and sparksH3590 of fireH784 leap outH4422.
Out of his nostrilsH5156 goethH3318 smokeH6227, as out of a seethingH5301 potH1731 or caldronH100.
His breathH5315 kindlethH3857 coalsH1513, and a flameH3851 goeth outH3318 of his mouthH6310.
In his neckH6677 remainethH3885 strengthH5797, and sorrowH1670 is turned into joyH1750 beforeH6440 him. {is turned into joy: Heb. rejoiceth}
The flakesH4651 of his fleshH1320 are joined togetherH1692: they are firmH3332 in themselves; they cannot be movedH4131. {flakes: Heb. fallings}
His heartH3820 is as firmH3332 as a stoneH68; yea, as hardH3332 as a pieceH6400 of the netherH8482 millstone.
When he raiseth upH7613 himself, the mightyH352 are afraidH1481: by reason of breakingsH7667 they purifyH2398 themselves.
The swordH2719 of him that layethH5381 at him cannot holdH6965: the spearH2595, the dartH4551, nor the habergeonH8302. {habergeon: or, breastplate}
He esteemethH2803 ironH1270 as strawH8401, and brassH5154 as rottenH7539 woodH6086.
The arrowH1121+H7198 cannot make him fleeH1272: slingstonesH68+H7050 are turnedH2015 with him into stubbleH7179.
DartsH8455 are countedH2803 as stubbleH7179: he laughethH7832 at the shakingH7494 of a spearH3591.
SharpH2303 stonesH2789 are under him: he spreadethH7502 sharp pointed thingsH2742 upon the mireH2916. {Sharp stones: Heb. Sharp pieces of potsherd}
He maketh the deepH4688 to boilH7570 like a potH5518: he makethH7760 the seaH3220 like a pot of ointmentH4841.
He maketh a pathH5410 to shineH215 afterH310 him; one would thinkH2803 the deepH8415 to be hoaryH7872.
Upon earthH6083 there is not his likeH4915, who is madeH6213 withoutH1097 fearH2844. {is made without fear: or, behave themselves without fear}
He beholdethH7200 all highH1364 things: he is a kingH4428 over all the childrenH1121 of prideH7830.

He dividethH7280 the seaH3220 with his powerH3581, and by his understandingH8394+H8394 he smitethH4272 through the proudH7293. {the proud: Heb. pride}
And PharaohH6547 saidH559, Who is the LORDH3068, that I should obeyH8085 his voiceH6963 to let IsraelH3478 goH7971? I knowH3045 not the LORDH3068, neither will I let IsraelH3478 goH7971.
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
WoeH1945 to the crownH5850 of prideH1348, to the drunkardsH7910 of EphraimH669, whose gloriousH6643 beautyH8597 is a fadingH5034 flowerH6731, which are on the headH7218 of the fatH8081 valleysH1516 of them that are overcomeH1986 with wineH3196! {overcome: Heb. broken}
SpeakH1696, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against thee, PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, the greatH1419 dragonH8577 that liethH7257 in the midstH8432 of his riversH2975, which hath saidH559, My riverH2975 is mine own, and I have madeH6213 it for myself.
AndG2532 there appearedG3700 a greatG3173 wonderG4592 inG1722 heavenG3772; a womanG1135 clothedG4016 with the sunG2246, andG2532 the moonG4582 underG5270 herG846 feetG4228, andG2532 uponG1909 herG846 headG2776 a crownG4735 of twelveG1427 starsG792: {wonder: or, sign}
AndG2532 she beingG2192 withG1722 childG1064 criedG2896, travailing in birthG5605, andG2532 painedG928 to be deliveredG5088.
AndG2532 there appearedG3700 anotherG243 wonderG4592 inG1722 heavenG3772; andG2532 beholdG2400 a greatG3173 redG4450 dragonG1404, havingG2192 sevenG2033 headsG2776 andG2532 tenG1176 hornsG2768, andG2532 sevenG2033 crownsG1238 uponG1909 hisG846 headsG2776. {wonder: or, sign}
AndG2532 the beastG2342 whichG3739 I sawG1492 wasG2258 likeG3664 unto a leopardG3917, andG2532 hisG846 feetG4228 were asG5613 the feet of a bearG715, andG2532 hisG846 mouthG4750 asG5613 the mouthG4750 of a lionG3023: andG2532 the dragonG1404 gaveG1325 himG846 hisG846 powerG1411, andG2532 hisG846 seatG2362, andG2532 greatG3173 authorityG1849.
AndG2532 he laid hold onG2902 the dragonG1404, that oldG744 serpentG3789, whichG3739 isG2076 the DevilG1228, andG2532 SatanG4567, andG2532 boundG1210 himG846 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094,
AndG2532 castG906 himG846 intoG1519 the bottomless pitG12, andG2532 shutG2808 himG846 upG2808, andG2532 set a sealG4972 uponG1883 himG846, thatG3363 he should deceiveG4105 the nationsG1484 noG3363 moreG2089, tillG891 the thousandG5507 yearsG2094 should be fulfilledG5055: andG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 heG846 mustG1163 be loosedG3089 a littleG3398 seasonG5550.
