Giants Of The Deep

1 "Can you draw out [a](A) Leviathan with a fishhook? Or press down his tongue with a cord?

2 "Can you (B) put a rope in his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?

3 "Will he make many supplications to you, or will he speak to you soft words?

4 "Will he make a covenant with you? Will you take him for a servant forever?

5 "Will you play with him as with a bird, or will you bind him for your maidens?

6 "Will the traders bargain over him? Will they divide him among the merchants?

7 "Can you fill his skin with harpoons, or his head with fishing spears?

8 "Lay your hand on him; remember the battle; you will not do it again!

9 "Behold, your expectation is false; will you be laid low even at the sight of him?

10 "No one is so fierce that he dares to (C) arouse him; who then is he that can stand before Me?
11 "Who has (D) given to Me that I should repay him? Whatever is (E) under the whole heaven is Mine.

-Job 41:1-11
