Job 41:27 in context

  1. 25When he raises himself up, the mighty are afraid.
    They retreat before his thrashing.
  2. 26If one attacks him with the sword, it can’t prevail;
    nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.
  3. 27He counts iron as straw;
    and bronze as rotten wood.
  4. 28The arrow can’t make him flee.
    Sling stones are like chaff to him.
  5. 29Clubs are counted as stubble.
    He laughs at the rushing of the javelin.
