A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance.

Job 41:29 in context

The verses around it, from Job 41.

25 When Leviathan rises up, the mighty are terrified; they withdraw before his thrashing.

26 The sword that reaches him has no effect, nor does the spear or dart or arrow.

27 He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood.

28 No arrow can make him flee; slingstones become like chaff to him.

29 A club is regarded as straw, and he laughs at the sound of the lance.

30 His undersides are jagged potsherds, spreading out the mud like a threshing sledge.

31 He makes the depths seethe like a cauldron; he makes the sea like a jar of ointment.

32 He leaves a glistening wake behind him; one would think the deep had white hair!

33 Nothing on earth is his equal—a creature devoid of fear!
