18 His bones are like strong pieces of brass;his bones are like bars of iron.
19 He is the first of the works of God;He who made him can bring near His sword.
20 Surely the mountains bring forth food for him,where all the beasts of the field play.
21 He lies under the shady trees,in the thicket of the reed and marsh.
22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow;the willows of the brook surround him.
23 Look, the river rages, but he is not alarmed;he trusts that he can draw up the Jordan into his mouth.
24 Can anyone catch it by its eyes,or pierce its nose with a snare?
