Daily Bible GNT September 28 Verses

Job 41 Can you catch Leviathan with a fishhook

or tie his tongue down with a rope?

²Can you put a rope through his snout

or put a hook through his jaws?

³Will he beg you to let him go?

Will he plead with you for mercy?

⁴Will he make an agreement with you

and promise to serve you forever?

⁵Will you tie him like a pet bird,

like something to amuse your servant women?

⁶Will fishermen bargain over him?

Will merchants cut him up to sell?

⁷Can you fill his hide with fishing spears

or pierce his head with a harpoon?

⁸Touch him once and you'll never try it again;

you'll never forget the fight!

⁹Anyone who sees Leviathan

loses courage and falls to the ground.

¹⁰When he is aroused, he is fierce;

no one would dare to stand before him.

¹¹Who can attack him and still be safe?

No one in all the world can do it.
