Job 40:21 in context

  1. 19He is the chief of the ways of God.
    He who made him gives him his sword.
  2. 20Surely the mountains produce food for him,
    where all the animals of the field play.
  3. 21He lies under the lotus trees,
    in the covert of the reed, and the marsh.
  4. 22The lotuses cover him with their shade.
    The willows of the brook surround him.
  5. 23Behold, if a river overflows, he doesn’t tremble.
    He is confident, though the Jordan swells even to his mouth.
