    On earth there is nothing like him,

  • Isaiah 27:1
    In that day the LORD with His severe sword, great and strong,
    Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent,
    Leviathan that twisted serpent;

  • Job 3:8-16
    May those curse it who curse the day,
    Those who are ready to arouse Leviathan. May the stars of its morning be dark;
    May it look for light, but have none,
    And not see the dawning of the day; Because it did not shut up the doors of my mother’s womb,
    Nor hide sorrow from my eyes. “Why did I not die at birth?
    Why did I not perish when I came from the womb? Why did the knees receive me?
    Or why the breasts, that I should nurse? For now I would have lain still and been quiet,
    I would have been asleep;
    Then I would have been at rest With kings and counselors of the earth,
    Who built ruins for themselves, Or with princes who had gold,
    Who filled their houses with silver; Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child,
    Like infants who never saw light?
     
  • Psalm 74:14
    You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces,
    And gave him as food to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

     
  • Psalm 104:26
    There the ships sail about;
    There is that Leviathan
    Which You have made to play there.

    "Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord GOD:
    "You were the seal of perfection,
    Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
    You were in Eden, the garden of God;
    Every precious stone was your covering:
    The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
    Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
    Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.
    The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes
    Was prepared for you on the day you were created.
    "You were the anointed cherub who covers;
    I established you;
    You were on the holy mountain of God;
    You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
    You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created,
    Till iniquity was found in you.
    "By the abundance of your trading
    You became filled with violence within,
    And you sinned;
    Therefore I cast you as a profane thing
    Out of the mountain of God;
    And I destroyed you, O covering cherub,
    From the midst of the fiery stones.
    "Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
    You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor;
    I cast you to the ground,
    I laid you before kings,
    That they might gaze at you.
