24 His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, firm as the nether millstone.

25 When he raiseth himself up, the mighty are afraid: by reason of consternation they are beside themselves.

26 If one lay at him with the sword, it cannot avail; nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.

27 He counteth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.

28 The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble.

29 Clubs are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the rushing of the javelin.

30 His underparts are like sharp potsherds: he spreadeth as it were a threshing wain upon the mire.

31 He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like ointment.

32 He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.

33 Upon earth there is not his like, that is made without fear.

34 He beholdeth every thing that is high: he is king over all the sons of pride.
