Psalm 104:26

New English Translation

²⁶The ships travel there,
and over here swims the whale^[a] you made to play in it.

Psalm 104:26 tn Heb “[and] this Leviathan, [which] you formed to play in it.” Elsewhere Leviathan is a multiheaded sea monster that symbolizes forces hostile to God (see Ps 74:14; Isa 27:1), but here it appears to be an actual marine creature created by God, probably some type of whale.

Psalm 104:26

New International Version

²⁶There the ships^(A) go to and fro,
and Leviathan,^(B) which you formed to frolic^(C) there.^(D)
