Surrounding context
Surely the mountains produce food for him, where all the animals of the field play.
He lies under the lotus trees, in the covert of the reed, and the marsh.
The lotuses cover him with their shade. The willows of the brook surround him.
Behold, if a river overflows, he doesn’t tremble. He is confident, though the Jordan swells even to his mouth.
Shall any take him when he is on the watch, or pierce through his nose with a snare?
