Job 40:17

He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.

He moveth {H2654} his tail {H2180} like a cedar {H730}: the sinews {H1517} of his stones {H6344} are wrapped together {H8276}.

He can make his tail as stiff as a cedar, the muscles in his thighs are like cables,

His tail sways like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.

He moveth his tail like a cedar: The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
