If any man draw out a sword at him, it shall not hurt him: there may neither spear, javelin, nor breast plate abide him. He setteth as much by a straw as by iron, and as much by a rotten stock as by metal. He starteth not away for him that bendeth the bow: and as for sling stones, he careth as much for stubble as for them. He counteth the hammer no better than a straw, he laugheth him to scorn that shaketh the spear. He treadeth the gold in the mire like the sharp potsherds. He maketh the deep to seethe and boil like a pot, and stirreth the sea together like an ointment. He maketh the path to be seen after him, and the deep is his walking place. Upon earth is there no power like unto his, for he is so made that he feareth not. If a man will consider all high things, this same is a king over all the children of pride."
