Job 41:24

²² Strength resides in his neck, and dismay leaps before him.

²³ The folds of his flesh are tightly joined; they are firm and immovable.

His chest is as hard as a rock, as hard as a lower millstone!

²⁵ When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw before his thrashing.

²⁶ The sword that reaches him has no effect, nor does the spear or dart or arrow.
