Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
22 Will he make prayers to you, or say soft words to you?
23 Will he make an agreement with you, so that you may take him as a servant for ever?
24 Will you make sport with him, as with a bird? or put him in chains for your young women?
25 Will the fishermen make profit out of him? will they have him cut up for the traders?
26 Will you put sharp-pointed irons into his skin, or fish-spears into his head?
27 Only put your hand on him, and see what a fight you will have; you will not do it again!
28 Truly, the hope of his attacker is false; he is overcome even on seeing him!
