New Testament

Job 41:27-34 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

27. It treats iron as if it were straw. It crushes bronze as if it were rotten wood.

28. Arrows do not make it run away. Stones that are thrown from slings are like straw hitting it.

29. A club seems like a piece of straw to it. It laughs when it hears a javelin rattling.

30. Its undersides are like broken pieces of pottery. It leaves a trail in the mud like a threshing sled.

31. It makes the ocean churn like a boiling pot. It stirs up the sea like perfume someone is making.

32. It leaves a shiny trail behind it. You would think the ocean had white hair.

33. Nothing on earth is equal to the leviathan. That creature is not afraid of anything.

34. It looks down on proud people. It rules over all those who are proud."
