Job 41:27
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.
He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood.
28 No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like chaff to him.
29 A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
