యోబు~ గ్రంథము 41
Canst thou draw out leviathan with a fish hook? or press down his tongue with a cord?
Canst thou put a rope into his nose? or pierce his jaw through with a hook?
Will he make many supplications unto thee? or will he speak soft words unto thee?
Will he make a covenant with thee, that thou shouldest take him for a servant for ever?
Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
Shall the bands [of fishermen] make traffic of him? shall they part him among the merchants?
Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons, or his head with fish spears?
Lay thine hand upon him; remember the battle, and do so no more.
9 ౯ దాన్ని చూస్తే చాలు, మనుషులు దాన్ని వశపరచుకోవచ్చనే ఆశ వదులుకుంటారు. దాని చూస్తే చాలు ఎవరికైనా గుండెలు అవిసిపోతాయి.
Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
None is so fierce that he dare stir him up: who then is he that can stand before me?
Who hath first given unto me, that I should repay him? [whatsoever is] under the whole heaven is mine.
12 ౧౨ సముద్ర రాక్షసి కాళ్ళను గురించైనా దాని మహా బలాన్ని గురించైనా దాని చక్కని ఆకారాన్ని గురించైనా పలకకుండా మౌనంగా ఉండను.
I will not keep silence concerning his limbs, nor his mighty strength, nor his comely proportion.
Who can strip off his outer garment? who shall come within his double bridle?
Who can open the doors of his face? round about his teeth is terror.
His strong scales are [his] pride, shut up together [as with] a close seal.
One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
They are joined one to another; they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
His neesings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
Out of his mouth go burning torches, and sparks of fire leap forth.
20 ౨౦ పొయ్యిపై మసులుతున్న కాగులోనుండి, బాగా గాలి విసిరి రాజబెట్టిన మంటలోనుండి లేచినట్టు దాని నాసికా రంధ్రాల్లో నుండి పొగ లేస్తుంది.
Out of his nostrils a smoke goeth, as of a seething pot and [burning] rushes.
His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth forth from his mouth.
In his neck abideth strength, and terror danceth before him.
The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm upon him; they cannot be moved.
His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, firm as the nether millstone.
When he raiseth himself up, the mighty are afraid: by reason of consternation they are beside themselves.
If one lay at him with the sword, it cannot avail; nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.
He counteth iron as straw, [and] brass as rotten wood.
The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
Clubs are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the rushing of the javelin.
30 ౩౦ దాని ఉదర భాగాలు కరుకైన గాజు పెంకుల్లాగా ఉన్నాయి. అది బురద మీద నురిపిడి కొయ్యలాంటి తన తోకను పరచుకుంటుంది.
His underparts are [like] sharp potsherds: he spreadeth [as it were] a threshing wain upon the mire.
He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like ointment.
32 ౩౨ అది తాను నడచిన దారిని తన వెనక ప్రకాశింప జేస్తుంది. చూసే వారు అగాధ జలం తెల్లగా ఉంది అనుకుంటారు.
He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.
Upon earth there is not his like, that is made without fear.
He beholdeth every thing that is high: he is king over all the sons of pride.
