Job 41
Magandang Balita Biblia
41 “Mahuhuli(A) mo ba ang Leviatan[a] sa pamamagitan ng pamingwit?
Maitatali mo ba ang dila nito sa pamamagitan ng lubid?
2 Matatalian mo kaya ng lubid ang ilong nito?
Tatagusan kaya ng kawit ang mga panga nito?
3 Siya kaya ay lumapit at lumuhod sa harap mo,
magsalita nang malumanay at magmakaawa sa iyo?
4 Siya kaya'y makiusap at ikaw ay pangakuan,
na sa habang buhay ikaw ay paglingkuran?
5 Siya kaya'y parang ibong tatalian at lalaruin
upang mga babaing lingkod mo ay aliwin?
6 Tawaran kaya siya ng mga mamimili,
paghatian kaya siya upang maipagbili?
7 Tablan kaya ang makapal niyang balat,
sa ulo kaya niya'y tumagos ang matulis na sibat?
8 Hawakan mo siya kahit na minsan lang,
hindi mo na uulitin dahil sa inyong paglalaban.
9 “Ang sinumang sa kanya'y makakakita,
sa lupa'y mabubuwal, nawawalan ng pag-asa.
10 Kapag siya'y ginambala, ubod siya ng bagsik.
Sa kanyang harapa'y walang nangangahas lumapit.
11 Sinong lulusob sa kanya at hindi mamamatay?
Walang makakagawa nito sa buong sanlibutan.
12 “Ang kanyang mga binti ay malaki at matatag,
at walang kaparis ang taglay nitong lakas.
13 Sino ang makakapag-alis sa panlabas niyang kasuotan?
May sandata na bang nakatusok sa balat niyang makapal?
14 Sa bibig niya'y sino kaya ang maaaring magbuka?
Nakakatakot na mga ngipin nakahanay sa bunganga niya.
15 Maraming kalasag, nakahanay sa kanyang likod;
sintigas ng bato at nakalagay nang maayos.
16-17 Masinsin ang pagkaayos, ito'y dikit-dikit,
walang pagitan, ni hangin ay di makasingit.
18 Kung siya ay bumahin, ang ilong ay nag-aapoy,
mata niya'y mapula parang araw sa dapit-hapon.
19 Mula sa bibig niya'y may apoy na lumalabas,
mga baga ng apoy ang doo'y sumisiklab.
20 Sa ilong niya'y nanggagaling ang makapal na usok,
parang usok na nagmumula sa kumukulong palayok at damong sinusunog.
21 Hininga niya'y nagbabaga, sa init ay nag-aalab;
naglalagablab na apoy sa bibig niya'y nagbubuhat.
22 Ang kanyang leeg nama'y puno ng kalakasan,
sinumang makakita sa kanya'y kinikilabutan.
23 Walang mahinang bahagi sa kanyang balat,
tulad ng bakal, matigas at makunat.
24 Ang tigas ng kanyang puso, bato ang katulad,
gaya ng batong gilingan sa tibay at tatag.
25 Kapag siya ay tumayo masisindak rin ang pinakamalakas,
wala silang magawâ, at sa takot ay tumatakas.
26 Pagkat siya'y di tatablan kahit na ng tabak,
maging ng palaso, ng punyal o ng sibat.
27 Sa kanya ang bakal ay parang dayaming marupok,
ang katulad nitong tanso ay kahoy na nabubulok.
28 Sa palaso'y hindi siya maaaring mapatakbo,
sa kanya'y parang dayami ang tirador at ang bato.
29 Kahoy na panghampas sa kanya'y para lamang patpat,
tumatawa lamang siya kapag siya'y sinisibat.
30 Kaliskis ng kanyang tiyan ay napakatalas,
at sa putik na daanan, nag-iiwan ng mga bakas.
31 Kaya niyang pakuluin ang malalim na tubig,
hinahalo niya ang dagat na parang palayok ng langis.
32 Ang kanyang madaana'y kumikislap sa liwanag,
ang akala mo sa tubig, puting buhok ang katulad.
33 Dito sa daigdig ay wala siyang katulad,
pagkat siya'y walang takot, hindi nasisindak.
34 Sa lahat ng mga hayop ay mababa ang tingin niya,
at sa kanilang lahat ang naghahari ay siya.”

Job 41
Darby Translation
Job 41
Darby Translation
41 Wilt thou draw out the leviathan with the hook, and press down his tongue with a cord?
2 Wilt thou put a rush-rope into his nose, and pierce his jaw with a spike?
3 Will he make many supplications unto thee? or will he speak softly unto thee?
4 Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him as a bondman for ever?
5 Wilt thou play with him as with a bird, and wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
6 Shall partners make traffic of him, will they divide him among merchants?
7 Wilt thou fill his skin with darts, and his head with fish-spears?
8 Lay thy hand upon him; remember the battle,—do no more!
9 Lo, hope as to him is belied: is not one cast down even at the sight of him?
10 None is so bold as to stir him up; and who is he that will stand before me?
11 Who hath first given to me, that I should repay [him]? [Whatsoever is] under the whole heaven is mine.
12 I will not be silent as to his parts, the story of his power, and the beauty of his structure.
13 Who can uncover the surface of his garment? who can come within his double jaws?
14 Who can open the doors of his face? Round about his teeth is terror.
15 The rows of his shields are a pride, shut up together [as with] a close seal.
16 One is so near to another that no air can come between them;
17 They are joined each to its fellow; they stick together, and cannot be sundered.
18 His sneezings flash light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
19 Out of his mouth go forth flames; sparks of fire leap out:
20 Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a boiling pot and cauldron.
21 His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
22 In his neck lodgeth strength, and terror danceth before him.
23 The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are fused upon him, they cannot be moved.
24 His heart is firm as a stone, yea, firm as the nether [millstone].
25 When he raiseth himself up, the mighty are afraid: they are beside themselves with consternation.
26 If any reach him with a sword, it cannot hold; neither spear, nor dart, nor harpoon.
27 He esteemeth iron as straw, bronze as rotten wood.
28 The arrow will not make him flee; slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
29 Clubs are counted as stubble; he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin.
30 His under parts are sharp potsherds: he spreadeth a threshing-sledge upon the mire.
31 He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment;
32 He maketh the path to shine after him: one would think the deep to be hoary.
33 Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.
34 He beholdeth all high things; he is king over all the proud beasts.

Chapter 41
1 “Any hope you have in this regard would be futile;
just the mere sight of it would convince you to retreat.
2 How ferocious it is when aroused!
No one could ever stand up to confront it.[a]
3 Who has attacked it and remained unscathed?
There has never been anyone under the heavens.
4 “Nor will I keep silence about its limbs,
or its strength, or its magnificent frame.
5 Who can strip off its outer garment
or pierce the reinforced armor of its breastplate?
6 Who has ever managed to force open the doors of its mouth
and beheld the teeth that leave one in terror?
7 “Rows of shields adorn its back
and are tightly sealed together.
8 One presses so close to the next
that no air can pass between them.
9 Each is so joined, one to another,
that they hold fast and cannot be separated.
10 “When it sneezes, sprays of light[b] flash forth,
and its eyes are like the rays of the dawn.
11 Fiery torches emerge from its mouth
and sparks come flying out.
12 Smoke issues forth from its nostrils
as from a boiling pot on the fire.
13 Its breath sets coals ablaze,
and flames pour forth from its mouth.
14 “Strength resides in its neck,
causing terror to all who behold it.
15 The folds of its flesh are joined together,
firmly set in place and immovable.
16 Its heart is as hard as stone,
as unyielding as the lower millstone.
17 When it rears up, strong men become terrified,
and the waves of the sea retreat.
18 “Even though the sword reaches it, there is no penetration,
nor is there with the spear, the dart, or the javelin.
19 It regards iron as straw
and bronze as rotting wood.
20 No arrow can force it to flee;
slingstones it regards as nothing but chaff.
21 To it a club is like a splinter,
and it laughs at the javelins that are hurled at it.
22 “Its lower parts are protected with jagged potsherds,
and it moves across the mire like a threshing sledge.
23 It causes the depths to boil like a cauldron;
it churns the sea like a pot of ointment.
24 Behind it there is left a shining trail,
and in its wake the deep appears to be white-haired.
25 It has no equal upon the earth;
it is a creature that is utterly fearless.
26 It looks down upon all, even the highest;
it is king over all wild beasts.”

New International Version
41 [a]“Can you pull in Leviathan(A) with a fishhook(B)
or tie down its tongue with a rope?
2 Can you put a cord through its nose(C)
or pierce its jaw with a hook?(D)
3 Will it keep begging you for mercy?(E)
Will it speak to you with gentle words?
4 Will it make an agreement with you
for you to take it as your slave for life?(F)
5 Can you make a pet of it like a bird
or put it on a leash for the young women in your house?
6 Will traders barter for it?
Will they divide it up among the merchants?
7 Can you fill its hide with harpoons
or its head with fishing spears?(G)
8 If you lay a hand on it,
you will remember the struggle and never do it again!(H)
9 Any hope of subduing it is false;
the mere sight of it is overpowering.(I)
10 No one is fierce enough to rouse it.(J)
Who then is able to stand against me?(K)
11 Who has a claim against me that I must pay?(L)
Everything under heaven belongs to me.(M)
12 “I will not fail to speak of Leviathan’s limbs,(N)
its strength(O) and its graceful form.
13 Who can strip off its outer coat?
Who can penetrate its double coat of armor[b]?(P)
14 Who dares open the doors of its mouth,(Q)
ringed about with fearsome teeth?
15 Its back has[c] rows of shields
tightly sealed together;(R)
16 each is so close to the next
that no air can pass between.
17 They are joined fast to one another;
they cling together and cannot be parted.
18 Its snorting throws out flashes of light;
its eyes are like the rays of dawn.(S)
19 Flames(T) stream from its mouth;
sparks of fire shoot out.
20 Smoke pours from its nostrils(U)
as from a boiling pot over burning reeds.
21 Its breath(V) sets coals ablaze,
and flames dart from its mouth.(W)
22 Strength(X) resides in its neck;
dismay goes before it.
23 The folds of its flesh are tightly joined;
they are firm and immovable.
24 Its chest is hard as rock,
hard as a lower millstone.(Y)
25 When it rises up, the mighty are terrified;(Z)
they retreat before its thrashing.(AA)
26 The sword that reaches it has no effect,
nor does the spear or the dart or the javelin.(AB)
27 Iron it treats like straw(AC)
and bronze like rotten wood.
28 Arrows do not make it flee;(AD)
slingstones are like chaff to it.
29 A club seems to it but a piece of straw;(AE)
it laughs(AF) at the rattling of the lance.
30 Its undersides are jagged potsherds,
leaving a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge.(AG)
31 It makes the depths churn like a boiling caldron(AH)
and stirs up the sea like a pot of ointment.(AI)
32 It leaves a glistening wake behind it;
one would think the deep had white hair.
33 Nothing on earth is its equal(AJ)—
a creature without fear.
34 It looks down on all that are haughty;(AK)
it is king over all that are proud.(AL)”
