4. Will it make an agreement with you? Can you make it your slave for life?

5. Can you make a pet out of it like a bird? Can you put it on a leash for your young women?

6. Will traders offer you something for it? Will they divide it up among the merchants?

7. Can you fill its body with harpoons? Can you throw fishing spears into its head?

8. If you touch it, it will fight you. Then you will remember never to touch it again!

9. No one can possibly control the leviathan. Just looking at it will terrify you.

10. No one dares to wake it up. So who can possibly stand up to me?

11. Who has a claim against me that I must pay? Everything on earth belongs to me.

12. "Now I will speak about the leviathan's legs. I will talk about its strength and its graceful body.

13. Who can strip off its outer coat? Who would try to put a bridle on it?
