17. The shades cover his shadow, the willows of the brook shall compass him about.
18. Behold, he will drink up a river, and not wonder: and he trusteth that the Jordan may run into his mouth.
19. In his eyes as with a hook he shall take him, and bore through his nostrils with stakes.
20. Canst thou draw out the leviathan with a hook, or canst thou tie his tongue with a cord?
21. Canst thou put a ring in his nose, or bore through his jaw with a buckle?
22. Will he make many supplications to thee, or speak soft words to thee?
