job 41:30 Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire.

job 41:30 "His underparts are [like] sharp potsherds; He spreads out [like] a threshing sledge on the mire.

30. stones--rather, "potsherds," that is, the sharp and pointed scales on the belly, like broken pieces of pottery.
sharp-pointed things--rather, "a threshing instrument," but not on the fruits of the earth, but "on the mire"; irony. When he lies on the mire, he leaves the marks of his scales so imprinted on it, that one might fancy a threshing instrument with its sharp teeth had been drawn over it (Isa 28:27).

job 41:30 "His underparts are [like] sharp potsherds; He spreads out [like] a threshing sledge on the mire.
