18His bones are [as] tubes of brass; His limbs are like bars of iron.

19He is the chief of the ways of God: He [only] that made him giveth him his sword.

20Surely the mountains bring him forth food, Where all the beasts of the field do play.

21He lieth under the lotus-trees, In the covert of the reed, and the fen.

22The lotus-trees cover him with their shade; The willows of the brook compass him about.

23Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; He is confident, though a Jordan swell even to his mouth.

24Shall any take him when he is on the watch, Or pierce through his nose with a snare?
