10None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?🔗🔍

12I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.🔗🔍
13Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle?🔗🔍
14Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.🔗🔍
15His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.🔗🔍

30Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.🔗🔍
31He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment.🔗🔍
32He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.🔗🔍
33Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.🔗🔍
34He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.🔗🔍
