Job 41:26-29

Many towns are near rivers. So a crocodile could enter a town. The inhabitants would want to frighten it. Perhaps it will return to the river. But the people cannot attack it. The crocodile is not afraid of a sword or a knife. And the crocodile would hurt anyone who tried to fight. So the people must stand at a distance. They might throw stones. But the crocodile is not afraid of stones.

The adventure ends: The crocodile decides to return to the river

v30 The lower parts of the crocodile’s body are like sharp pieces of pot. Behind it, the crocodile leaves a track in the mud. This track is like a vehicle’s track.

v31 The crocodile stirs the water like a boiling pot. And the crocodile mixes the water, like a pot of medicine.

v32 The crocodile leaves a path behind it, in the water. This looks as if the river has white hair.
