24In his eyes as with a hook he shall take him, and bore through his nostrils with stakes.


In Context

21 He sleepeth under the shadow, in the covert of the reed, and in moist places.

22 The shades cover his shadow, the willows of the brook shall compass him about.

23 Behold, he will drink up a river, and not wonder : and he trusteth that the Jordan may run into his mouth.

24 In his eyes as with a hook he shall take him, and bore through his nostrils with stakes.
