Reina-Valera 1909
1“Can you draw out Leviathan with a fish hook, or press down his tongue with a cord?
1¿SACARÁS tú al leviathán con el anzuelo, ó con la cuerda que le echares en su lengua?
2Can you put a rope into his nose, or pierce his jaw through with a hook?
2¿Pondrás tú garfio en sus narices, y horadarás con espinas su quijada?
3Will he make many petitions to you, or will he speak soft words to you?
3¿Multiplicará él ruegos para contigo? ¿hablaráte él lisonjas?
4Will he make a covenant with you, that you should take him for a servant forever?
4¿Hará concierto contigo para que lo tomes por siervo perpetuo?
5Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you bind him for your girls?
5¿Jugarás tú con él como con pájaro, ó lo atarás para tus niñas?
6Will traders barter for him? Will they part him among the merchants?
6¿Harán de él banquete los compañeros? ¿partiránlo entre los mercaderes?
7Can you fill his skin with barbed irons, or his head with fish spears?
7¿Cortarás tú con cuchillo su cuero, ó con asta de pescadores su cabeza?
8Lay your hand on him. Remember the battle, and do so no more.
8Pon tu mano sobre él; te acordarás de la batalla, y nunca más tornarás.
9Behold, the hope of him is in vain. Won’t one be cast down even at the sight of him?
9He aquí que la esperanza acerca de él será burlada: porque aun á su sola vista se desmayarán.
10None is so fierce that he dare stir him up. Who then is he who can stand before me?
10Nadie hay tan osado que lo despierte: ¿quién pues podrá estar delante de mí?
11Who has first given to me, that I should repay him? Everything under the heavens is mine.
11¿Quién me ha anticipado, para que yo restituya? Todo lo que hay debajo del cielo es mío.
12“I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, nor his mighty strength, nor his goodly frame.
12Yo no callaré sus miembros, ni lo de sus fuerzas y la gracia de su disposición.
13Who can strip off his outer garment? Who will come within his jaws?
13¿Quién descubrirá la delantera de su vestidura? ¿quién se llegará á él con freno doble?
14Who can open the doors of his face? Around his teeth is terror.
14¿Quién abrirá las puertas de su rostro? Los órdenes de sus dientes espantan.
15Strong scales are his pride, shut up together with a close seal.
15La gloria de su vestido son escudos fuertes, cerrados entre sí estrechamente.
16One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
16El uno se junta con el otro, que viento no entra entre ellos.
17They are joined to one another. They stick together, so that they can’t be pulled apart.
17Pegado está el uno con el otro, están trabados entre sí, que no se pueden apartar.
18His sneezing flashes out light. His eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
18Con sus estornudos encienden lumbre, y sus ojos son como los párpados del alba.
19Out of his mouth go burning torches. Sparks of fire leap out.
19De su boca salen hachas de fuego; centellas de fuego proceden.
20Out of his nostrils a smoke goes, as of a boiling pot over a fire of reeds.
20De sus narices sale humo, como de una olla ó caldero que hierve.
21His breath kindles coals. A flame goes out of his mouth.
21Su aliento enciende los carbones, y de su boca sale llama.
22There is strength in his neck. Terror dances before him.
22En su cerviz mora la fortaleza, y espárcese el desaliento delante de él.
23The flakes of his flesh are joined together. They are firm on him. They can’t be moved.
23Las partes momias de su carne están apretadas: están en él firmes, y no se mueven.
24His heart is as firm as a stone, yes, firm as the lower millstone.
24Su corazón es firme como una piedra, y fuerte como la muela de abajo.
25When he raises himself up, the mighty are afraid. They retreat before his thrashing.
25De su grandeza tienen temor los fuertes, y á causa de su desfallecimiento hacen por purificarse.
26If one attacks him with the sword, it can’t prevail; nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.
26Cuando alguno lo alcanzare, ni espada, ni lanza, ni dardo, ni coselete durará.
27He counts iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood.
27El hierro estima por pajas, y el acero por leño podrido.
28The arrow can’t make him flee. Sling stones are like chaff to him.
28Saeta no le hace huir; las piedras de honda se le tornan aristas.
29Clubs are counted as stubble. He laughs at the rushing of the javelin.
29Tiene toda arma por hojarascas, y del blandir de la pica se burla.
30His undersides are like sharp potsherds, leaving a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge.
30Por debajo tiene agudas conchas; Imprime su agudez en el suelo.
31He makes the deep to boil like a pot. He makes the sea like a pot of ointment.
31Hace hervir como una olla la profunda mar, y tórnala como una olla de ungüento.
32He makes a path shine after him. One would think the deep had white hair.
32En pos de sí hace resplandecer la senda, que parece que la mar es cana.
33On earth there is not his equal, that is made without fear.
33No hay sobre la tierra su semejante, hecho para nada temer.
34He sees everything that is high. He is king over all the sons of pride.”
34Menosprecia toda cosa alta: es rey sobre todos los soberbios.
