26 Though the sword reaches him, it does not avail,

The spear, the dart, nor the habergeon.

27 He esteemeth iron as straw,

And brass as rotten wood.

28 The arrow cannot make him flee:

Slingstones are turned with him into stubble.

26 No sword can stop it,

no spear, dart, or javelin.

26 The sword that hits it does not hurt it,

nor the arrows, darts, and spears.

27 It treats iron as if it were straw

and bronze metal as if it were rotten wood.

28 It does not run away from arrows;

stones from slings are like chaff to it.

26 If one lay at him with the sword, it cannot avail;

Nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.

27 He counteth iron as straw,

And brass as rotten wood.

28 The arrow cannot make him flee:

Sling-stones are turned with him into stubble.

26 If any reach him with a sword, it cannot hold; neither spear, nor dart, nor harpoon. 27 He esteemeth iron as straw, bronze as rotten wood. 28 The arrow will not make him flee; slingstones are turned with him into stubble.

26 A sword may strike it but not pierce it. 

Neither will a spear, lance, or dart. 

27 It considers iron to be like straw 

and bronze to be like rotten wood. 

28 An arrow won’t make it run away. 

Stones from a sling turn to dust against it. 

26 The sword that reaches him will have no effect,

nor will a spear, dart, or arrow.

27 He regards iron as straw,

and bronze as rotten wood.

28 No arrow can make him flee;

28 The arrow cannot make it flee;

slingstones, for it, are turned to chaff.

26 Reaching it with the sword does not avail,

nor with the spear, the dart, or the javelin.

27 It regards iron as straw,

bronze as rotten wood.

28 An arrow will not make it flee;

sling stones are turned to stubble for it.

26 A sword that strikes it has no effect.

Neither does a spear or dart or javelin.

27 It treats iron as if it were straw.

It crushes bronze as if it were rotten wood.

28 Arrows do not make it run away.

Stones that are thrown from slings are like straw hitting it.
