1“Can you pull in Leviathan with a hook or tie down his tongue with a rope?
1Leviathan to cakoih hoi na tathok thai tih maw? To tih ai boeh loe anih ih palai to qui hoiah na pathlet pae thai tih maw?
2Can you put a cord through his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?
2A hnah to na daw pae moe, anih ih akam huh to cakoih hoiah na taqawt pae thai tih maw?
3Will he beg you for mercy or speak to you softly?
3Anih mah tahmenhaih na hni ueloe, nang khaeah lok kanaem to thui tih maw?
4Will he make a covenant with you to take him as a slave for life?
4Anih loe hing thung na tamna ah oh hanah, nang khaeah lokmaihaih sah tih maw?
5Can you pet him like a bird or put him on a leash for your maidens?
5Anih to tavaa hoi amhai baktiah nam hai haih han maw? To tih ai boeh loe nangmah ih nongpatanawk hanah anih to qui hoiah na pathlet pae han maw?
6Will traders barter for him or divide him among the merchants?
6Nam puinawk mah anih han buhraenghaih sah pae tih maw? Anih to hmuen zaw kaminawk khaeah athum o sak tih maw?
7Can you fill his hide with harpoons or his head with fishing spears?
7Sum kamsum hoiah anih ih ahin to na thunh thai tih maw? To tih ai boeh loe a lu to tanga thunhaih tayae hoiah na thunh thai tih maw?
8If you lay a hand on him, you will remember the battle and never repeat it!
8Anih nuiah ban to mah koeng ah, anih tuk hanah poek hmah.
9Surely hope of overcoming him is false. Is not the sight of him overwhelming?
9Khenah, anih pazawk han poekhaih loe azom pui ni; anih hnu kami loe amthaek bup mak ai maw?
10No one is so fierce as to rouse Leviathan. Then who is able to stand against Me?
10Anih to mi mah doeh pahrue thai mak ai; to tiah om nahaeloe mi maw ka hmaa ah angdoe thai tih?
11Who has given to Me that I should repay him? Everything under heaven is Mine.
11Ka sak pathok let hanah mi mah maw na pakaa thai tih? Van tlim ih hmuennawk boih loe kai ih ni.
12I cannot keep silent about his limbs, his power and graceful form.
12Leviathan ih khokbannawk, a thacakhaih hoi kahoih takpumnawk thui ai ah ka om thai mak ai.
13Who can strip off his outer coat? Who can approach him with a bridle?
13Mi mah maw anih ih ahin to khok pae thai tih? Mi mah maw anih ih akam huh to cakoih hoi tathok hanah a taengah caeh thai tih?
14Who can open his jaws, ringed by his fearsome teeth?
14Mi mah maw anih ih mikhmai thok to paong pae thai tih? Anih ih haanawk loe zit thoh.
15His rows of scales are his pride, tightly sealed together.
15Kacak ah catui daeng baktih toengah, kangbok a nui ih ahin loe anih amoekhaih ah oh.
16One scale is so near to another that no air can pass between them.
16Takhi akun thaih han ai ah, ahin maeto hoi maeto angbet.
17They are joined to one another; they clasp and cannot be separated.
17Ahin maeto hoi maeto angbet moe, kacakah angbet caeng pongah khram thai ai.
18His snorting flashes with light, and his eyes are like the rays of dawn.
18Anih pasih naah hmai ampha, a mik loe akhawn bangah pakhrip ih mik baktiah oh.
19Firebrands stream from his mouth; fiery sparks shoot forth!
19Anih ih pakha thung hoiah hmai aengh hoi hmai kangqong to tacawt.
20Smoke billows from his nostrils as from a boiling pot over burning reeds.
20Tui tangdawh thlukbuk laom thung hoi tacawt hmaikhue baktih toengah, a hnakhaw thung hoiah hmaikhue to tacawt.
21His breath sets coals ablaze, and flames pour from his mouth.
21Anih anghahhaih takhi mah hmaisaae to amngaehsak moe, anih ih pakha thung hoiah kangqong hmai to tacawt.
22Strength resides in his neck, and dismay leaps before him.
22Anih ih tahnong ah thacakhaih to oh, anih hmaa ah loe palungsethaih to anghoehaih ah oh.
23The folds of his flesh are tightly joined; they are firm and immovable.
23Anih ih ngan thaquinawk loe nawnto amraep o, angthui thai ai, cakrap.
24His chest is as hard as a rock, as hard as a lower millstone!
24Anih ih palung loe thlung baktiah amtak; ue, cang kaehhaih thlung baktiah amtak.
25When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw before his thrashing.
25Anih angthawk tahang naah, thacak kaminawk loe zithaih hoiah oh o; anih tamai boh naah om o thai ai.
26The sword that reaches him has no effect, nor does the spear or dart or arrow.
26Anih loe sumsen mah caa ai; tayae, palaa hoi ahnuk ahma kamsum tayae mah doeh caa ai.
27He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood.
27Anih loe sum to caphaeh baktiah poek moe, sumkamling doeh kahmawn thing baktiah a poek.
28No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like chaff to him.
28Palaa mah anih to cawnsak thai mak ai; lawkthluem doeh tavai baktiah ni a poek.
29A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance.
29Anih han loe thingboeng doeh cangkung baktiah ni oh; tayae hoi takhawh han pahuem naah anih mah pahnuithuih.
30His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading out the mud like a threshing sledge.
30Anih ih zok loe kanoe laom koi baktiah oh; tangnong nui ih sum kanoe haa caehhaih ahmuen baktiah oh.
31He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron; he makes the sea like a jar of ointment.
31Anih mah kathuk tuipui to laom thung ih tangdawh tui baktiah haeh moe, tuipui to laom nokhaih moithawk baktiah a sak.
32He leaves a glistening wake behind him; one would think the deep had white hair!
32A caeh taak ih loklam loe ampha pongah, tuipui loe sam kanglung baktiah oh.
33Nothing on earth is his equal— a creature devoid of fear!
33Anih baktiah zithaih tawn ai ah sak ih hmuen maeto doeh long nuiah om ai.
34He looks down on all the haughty; he is king over all the proud.”
34Anih loe kasang hmuennawk to khet; anih loe amoekhaih hmuennawk boih ih siangpahrang ah oh, tiah a naa.
