Job 40:22-24

Revised Standard Version

²²For his shade the lotus trees cover him;
    the willows of the brook surround him.
²³Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened;
    he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth.
²⁴Can one take him with hooks,^[a]
    or pierce his nose with a snare?
