Shall punish Leviathan, the piercing serpent,
And Leviathan, the crooked serpent;
And He shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.”
(Isa. xxvi. 21-xxvii. 1.)
“For God is my king of old,
Working salvation in the midst of the earth.
Thou didst divide (marg. Heb., break) the sea by Thy strength,
Thou brakest the heads of the dragons (r.v. marg., sea monsters) in the waters.
Thou brakest the heads of Leviathan in pieces.”
(Ps. lxxiv. 12-14.)
