40

1 וַיַּ֖עַן יְהֹוָ֥ה אֶת־אִיּ֗וֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said:

2 הֲ֭רֹב עִם־שַׁדַּ֣י יִסּ֑וֹר מוֹכִ֖יחַ אֱל֣וֹהַּ יַעֲנֶֽנָּה׃ {פ}
Shall he that reproveth contend with the Almighty? He that argueth with God, let him answer it.

3 וַיַּ֖עַן אִיּ֥וֹב אֶת־יְהֹוָ֗ה וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ Then Job answered the LORD, and said:

4 הֵ֣ן קַ֭לֹּתִי מָ֣ה אֲשִׁיבֶ֑ךָּ יָ֝דִ֗י שַׂ֣מְתִּי לְמוֹ־פִֽי׃ Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer Thee? I lay my hand upon my mouth.

5 אַחַ֣ת דִּ֭בַּרְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אֶעֱנֶ֑ה וּ֝שְׁתַּ֗יִם וְלֹ֣א אוֹסִֽיף׃ {פ}
Once have I spoken, but I will not answer again; Yea, twice, but I will proceed no further.

6 וַיַּעַן־יְהֹוָ֣ה אֶת־אִ֭יּוֹב (מנסערה) [מִ֥ן ׀ סְעָרָ֗ה] וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

7 אֱזׇר־נָ֣א כְגֶ֣בֶר חֲלָצֶ֑יךָ אֶ֝שְׁאָלְךָ֗ וְהוֹדִיעֵֽנִי׃ Gird up thy loins now like a man; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto Me. .

8 הַ֭אַף תָּפֵ֣ר מִשְׁפָּטִ֑י תַּ֝רְשִׁיעֵ֗נִי לְמַ֣עַן תִּצְדָּֽק׃ Wilt thou even make void My judgment? Wilt thou condemn Me, that thou mayest be justified?

9 וְאִם־זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ וּ֝בְק֗וֹל כָּמֹ֥הוּ תַרְעֵֽם׃ Or hast thou an arm like God? And canst thou thunder with a voice like Him?

10 עֲדֵ֥ה נָ֣א גָא֣וֹן וָגֹ֑בַהּ וְה֖וֹד וְהָדָ֣ר תִּלְבָּֽשׁ׃ Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency, And array thyself with glory and beauty.

11 הָ֭פֵץ עֶבְר֣וֹת אַפֶּ֑ךָ וּרְאֵ֥ה כׇל־גֵּ֝אֶ֗ה וְהַשְׁפִּילֵֽהוּ׃ Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath; And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.

12 רְאֵ֣ה כׇל־גֵּ֭אֶה הַכְנִיעֵ֑הוּ וַהֲדֹ֖ךְ רְשָׁעִ֣ים תַּחְתָּֽם׃ Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; And tread down the wicked in their place.

13 טׇמְנֵ֣ם בֶּעָפָ֣ר יָ֑חַד פְּ֝נֵיהֶ֗ם חֲבֹ֣שׁ בַּטָּמֽוּן׃ Hide them in the dust together; Bind their faces in the hidden place.

14 וְגַם־אֲנִ֥י אוֹדֶ֑ךָּ כִּֽי־תוֹשִׁ֖עַ לְךָ֣ יְמִינֶֽךָ׃ Then will I also confess unto thee That thine own right hand can save thee.

15 הִנֵּה־נָ֣א בְ֭הֵמוֹת אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֣יתִי עִמָּ֑ךְ חָ֝צִ֗יר כַּבָּקָ֥ר יֹאכֵֽל׃ Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; He eateth grass as an ox.

16 הִנֵּה־נָ֣א כֹח֣וֹ בְמׇתְנָ֑יו וְ֝אוֹנ֗וֹ בִּשְׁרִירֵ֥י בִטְנֽוֹ׃ Lo now, his strength is in his loins, And his force is in the stays of his body.

17 יַחְפֹּ֣ץ זְנָב֣וֹ כְמוֹ־אָ֑רֶז גִּידֵ֖י פַחֲדָ֣ו יְשֹׂרָֽגוּ׃ He straineth his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs are knit together.

18 עֲ֭צָמָיו אֲפִיקֵ֣י נְחֻשָׁ֑ה גְּ֝רָמָ֗יו כִּמְטִ֥יל בַּרְזֶֽל׃ His bones are as pipes of brass; His gristles are like bars of iron.

19 ה֭וּא רֵאשִׁ֣ית דַּרְכֵי־אֵ֑ל הָ֝עֹשׂ֗וֹ יַגֵּ֥שׁ חַרְבּֽוֹ׃ He is the beginning of the ways of God; He only that made him can make His sword to approach unto him.

20 כִּי־ב֭וּל הָרִ֣ים יִשְׂאוּ־ל֑וֹ וְֽכׇל־חַיַּ֥ת הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה יְשַׂחֲקוּ־שָֽׁם׃ Surely the mountains bring him forth food, And all the beasts of the field play there.

21 תַּֽחַת־צֶאֱלִ֥ים יִשְׁכָּ֑ב בְּסֵ֖תֶר קָנֶ֣ה וּבִצָּֽה׃ He lieth under the lotus-trees, In the covert of the reed, and fens.

22 יְסֻכֻּ֣הוּ צֶאֱלִ֣ים צִֽלְל֑וֹ יְ֝סֻבּ֗וּהוּ עַרְבֵי־נָֽחַל׃ The lotus-trees cover him with their shadow; The willows of the brook compass him about.

23 הֵ֤ן יַעֲשֹׁ֣ק נָ֭הָר לֹ֣א יַחְפּ֑וֹז יִבְטַ֓ח ׀ כִּֽי־יָגִ֖יחַ יַרְדֵּ֣ן אֶל־פִּֽיהוּ׃ Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; He is confident, though the Jordan rush forth to his mouth.

24 בְּעֵינָ֥יו יִקָּחֶ֑נּוּ בְּ֝מוֹקְשִׁ֗ים יִנְקׇב־אָֽף׃ Shall any take him by his eyes, Or pierce through his nose with a snare?

25 תִּמְשֹׁ֣ךְ לִוְיָתָ֣ן בְּחַכָּ֑ה וּ֝בְחֶ֗בֶל תַּשְׁקִ֥יעַ לְשֹׁנֽוֹ׃ Canst thou draw out leviathan with a fish-hook? Or press down his tongue with a cord?

26 הֲתָשִׂ֣ים אַגְמֹ֣ן בְּאַפּ֑וֹ וּ֝בְח֗וֹחַ תִּקֹּ֥ב לֶחֱיֽוֹ׃ Canst thou put a ring into his nose? Or bore his jaw through with a hook?

27 הֲיַרְבֶּ֣ה אֵ֭לֶיךָ תַּחֲנוּנִ֑ים אִם־יְדַבֵּ֖ר אֵלֶ֣יךָ רַכּֽוֹת׃ Will he make many supplications unto thee? Or will he speak soft words unto thee?

28 הֲיִכְרֹ֣ת בְּרִ֣ית עִמָּ֑ךְ תִּ֝קָּחֶ֗נּוּ לְעֶ֣בֶד עוֹלָֽם׃ Will he make a covenant with thee, That thou shouldest take him for a servant for ever?

29 הַֽתְשַׂחֶק־בּ֭וֹ כַּצִּפּ֑וֹר וְ֝תִקְשְׁרֶ֗נּוּ לְנַעֲרוֹתֶֽיךָ׃ Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? Or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? .

30 יִכְר֣וּ עָ֭לָיו חַבָּרִ֑ים יֶ֝חֱצ֗וּהוּ בֵּ֣ין כְּֽנַעֲנִֽים׃ Will the bands of fishermen make a banquet of him? Will they part him among the merchants?

31 הַֽתְמַלֵּ֣א בְשֻׂכּ֣וֹת עוֹר֑וֹ וּבְצִלְצַ֖ל דָּגִ֣ים רֹאשֽׁוֹ׃ Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? Or his head with fish-spears?

32 שִׂים־עָלָ֥יו כַּפֶּ֑ךָ זְכֹ֥ר מִ֝לְחָמָ֗ה אַל־תּוֹסַֽף׃ Lay thy hand upon him; Think upon the battle, thou wilt do so no more.

Commentary on Job 40:31

Rashi

English

Will you fulfill Will you fulfill your desire and make tents of his skin?

or a shade of fishes of his head Will you make from his head a shade of fish? This is a repetitious expression.

a shade Heb. צִלְצַל, a tent of fish. A tent made from his head is called a shade of fish because it is made from him.

צִלְצַל is ombre in French. It is an expression of shadow, and that is one of the double words, like: green (ירקרק), red (אדמדם) [both in Lev. 13:49], twisted (פתלתל) [Deut. 32:5], tattoo (קעקע) [Lev. 19:28].
