Job 41:27 in Context — Job 41

25 De su grandeza tienen temor los fuertes, y á causa de su desfallecimiento hacen por purificarse.

26 Cuando alguno lo alcanzare, ni espada, ni lanza, ni dardo, ni coselete durará.

27 El hierro estima por pajas, y el acero por leño podrido.

28 Saeta no le hace huir; las piedras de honda se le tornan aristas.

29 Tiene toda arma por hojarascas, y del blandir de la pica se burla.
