Job 41:30

30 Sus costados son dentados tiestosque en el fango van dejando huellas de rastrillos.

Job 41:30 Meaning and Commentary

Job 41:30

Sharp stones [are] under him
And yet give him no pain nor uneasiness;

he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire;
and makes his bed of them and lies upon them; as sharp stones, as before, shells of fishes, broken pieces of darts, arrows, and javelins thrown at him, which fall around him: this does not so well agree with the crocodile, the skin of whose belly is soft and thin; wherefore dolphins plunge under it and cut it with a thorn, as Pliny ^F8 relates, or with spiny fins ^F9; but with the whale, which lies among hard rocks and sharp stones, and large cutting pieces of ice, as in the northern seas.

Job 41:30 In-Context

28 No lo hacen huir las flechas;ve como paja las piedras de las hondas.

29 Los golpes del mazo apenas le hacen cosquillas;se burla del silbido de la lanza.

30 Sus costados son dentados tiestosque en el fango van dejando huellas de rastrillos.

31 Hace hervir las profundidades como un caldero;agita los mares como un frasco de ungüento.

32 Una estela brillante va dejando tras de sí,cual si fuera la blanca cabellera del abismo.
