Contextual Overview

¹ Canst thou drawe out Leuiathan with an hooke, or binde his tongue with a corde? ² Canst thou put a hooke in the nose of him, or bore his iawe through with a naule? ³ Wyl he make many faire wordes with thee [thinkest thou] or flatter thee? ⁴ Wyll he make a couenaunt with thee? or wilt thou take him for a seruaunt for euer? ⁵ Wylt thou take thy pastime with him as with a birde, wilt thou binde him for thy maydens? ⁶ That thy companions may make a refection of him: or shall he be parted among the marchauntes? ⁷ Canst thou fil the basket with his skin? or the fishe panier with his head? ⁸ Laye thyne hande vpon him, remember the battaile, and do no more so. ⁹ Beholde his hope is in vaine: for shall not one perishe euen at the sight of him? ¹⁰ No man is so fierce that dare stirre him vp: Who is able to stande before me?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Will he make many supplications unto thee?.... To cease pursuing him, or to let him go when taken, or to use him well and not take away his life; no, he is too spirited and stouthearted to ask any favour, it is below him;

will he speak soft [words] unto thee? smooth and flattering ones, for the above purposes? he will not: this is a figurative way of speaking.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Will he make many supplications unto thee? - In the manner of a captive begging for his life. That is, will he quietly submit to you? Prof. Lee supposes that there is an allusion here to the well-known cries of the dolphin when taken; but it is not necessary to suppose such an allusion. The idea is, that the animal here referred to would not tamely submit to his captor.

Will he speak soft words unto thee? - Pleading for his life in tones of tender and plaintive supplication.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 41:3. Will he make many supplications — There are several allusions in these verses to matters of which we know nothing.
