Job 41:18-29 Common English Bible (CEB)

18. His sneezes emit flashes of light;his eyes are like dawn’s rays.

19. Shafts of fire shoot from his mouth;like fiery sparks they fly out.

20. Smoke pours from his nostrilslike a boiling pot over reeds.

21. His breath lights coals;a flame shoots from his mouth.

22. Power resides in his neck;violence dances before him.

23. The folds of his flesh stick together;on him they are tough and unyielding.

24. His heart is solid like a rock,hard like a lower millstone.

25. The divine beings dread his rising;they withdraw before his thrashing.

26. The sword that touches him won’t prevail;neither will the dart, spear, nor javelin.

27. He treats iron as straw,bronze as rotten wood.

28. Arrows can’t make him flee;slingstones he turns to straw.

29. He treats a club like straw;he laughs at the lance’s rattle.
