Hiob 41 | La Biblia Textual
1¿Sacarás con anzuelo al Leviatán, O amarrarás con una cuerda su lengua?2¿Pondrás anillo en su nariz, O perforarás con un garfio su quijada?3¿Se acercará a ti con muchas súplicas, O te hablará con palabras sumisas?4¿Hará un pacto contigo, Para que lo tomes como esclavo de por vida?5¿Juguetearás con él como con algún pajarillo? ¿Lo atarás para entretener a tus niñas?6¿Traficarán con él las cuadrillas de pescadores? ¿Lo trocearán entre los mercaderes?7¿Podrás acribillarle el cuero con dardos, O su cabeza con arpones?8Pon la mano sobre él, Piensa en la batalla, y no lo volverás a hacer.9He aquí la esperanza de aquél queda frustrada. ¿No se desfallece con sólo verlo?10Nadie tiene la osadía de atreverse a despertarlo. ¿Quién pues podrá estar delante de mí?11¿Quién me ha dado a mí primero, para que Yo restituya? Todo lo que hay debajo de los cielos es mío.12No dejaré de describir sus miembros, Ni su fuerza incomparable.13¿Quién le abrió el revestimiento, Y penetró por su doble coraza?14¿Quién abrió las dos puertas de sus fauces, Rodeada de dientes espantosos?15Las hileras de escamas son su orgullo, Cerradas sin rendijas, como un sello.16Tan unidas una a la otra, Que ni el aire pasa entre ellas,17Soldadas están, cada una a la de su vecino, Trabadas entre sí, no se pueden separar.18Su estornudo lanza destellos de luz, Sus ojos son como los párpados de la aurora.19De sus fauces salen antorchas, Y se escapan centellas de fuego.20De sus narices sale una fumarada, Como la de un caldero atizado e hirviente.21Su aliento enciende los carbones, Y saltan llamaradas de sus fauces.22En su cerviz se asienta la fuerza, Ante él cunde el terror.23Los pliegues de su carne son compactos, Están firmes sobre él, y no se mueven.24Su corazón es duro como la piedra, Firme como la muela de abajo.25Cuando se yergue, tiemblan los valientes, Y ante el quebrantamiento, retroceden.26La espada que lo alcance, no resiste, Ni la lanza ni el dardo ni la jabalina,27Para él el hierro es como paja, Y el bronce madera carcomida.28No lo ahuyentan las saetas, Y las piedras de la honda se le vuelven rastrojos,29Como hojarasca le es reputado el garrote, Y se burla del blandir de la jabalina.30Su panza de tejuelas puntiagudas, Se extiende como un trillo sobre el lodo.31Hace hervir como un caldero lo profundo del mar, Lo pone como redoma de ungüento,32Detrás de sí brilla una estela: El agua como barba encanecida.33Nada hay semejante a él sobre la tierra, Exento de temor,34Observa todo cuanto es elevado, Es rey sobre todos los hijos de soberbia.
King James Version
1Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?2Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?3Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee?4Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant for ever?5Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?6Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?7Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?8Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.9Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?10None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?11Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.12I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.13Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?14Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.15His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.16One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.17They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.18By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.19Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out.20Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron.21His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.22In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.23The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved.24His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone .25When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.26The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.27He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.28The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.29Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.30Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.31He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.32He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.33Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.34He beholdeth all high things : he is a king over all the children of pride.
