9Any hope of capturing him proves false.

Does a person not collapse at the very sight of him?

10No one is ferocious enough to rouse Leviathan;t

who then can stand against me?

11Who confronted me, that I should repay him?

Everything under heaven belongs to me.a

ESVEnglish Standard Version

Behold, the hope of a man is false;

he is laid low even at the sight of him.

No one is so fierce that he dares to stir him up.

Who then is he who can stand before me?

Who has first given to me, that I should repay him?

Whatever is under the whole heaven is mine.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Any hope of subduing it is false;

the mere sight of it is overpowering.

No one is fierce enough to rouse it.

Who then is able to stand against me?

Who has a claim against me that I must pay?

Everything under heaven belongs to me.

NLTNew Living Translation

 No, it is useless to try to capture it.

The hunter who attempts it will be knocked down.

And since no one dares to disturb it,

who then can stand up to me?

Who has given me anything that I need to pay back?

Everything under heaven is mine.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“Look, the hope of capturing it is false.

Will one be hurled down even at its sight?

Is it not fierce when somebody stirs it?

Who then is he who would stand before it?

Who has come to confront me, that I should repay him?

Under all the heavens, it belongs to me.

KJV 1900King James Version

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 dare stir him up:

Who then is able to stand before me?

Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him?

Whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.
