"He has rushed against him with his throat exposed, and he has been armed with a fat neck. "

“He runneth upon him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his bucklers:”
“He runneth upon him with astiffneck, With the thick bosses of his bucklers; ”
“he runs at him with a stiff neck, with the thick shields of his bucklers;”
“defiantly charging against him with a thick, strong shield!”
“He hath run against him with his neck raised up, and is armed with a fat neck.”
“Running against him like a man of war, covered by his thick breastplate; even like a king ready for the fight,”
“He runneth upon him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his bucklers:”
When he moves himself to seek bread, he knows that the day of darkness has been prepared for his hand.
Tribulation will terrify him, and anguish will prevail over him, like a king who is being prepared to go to battle.
For he has extended his hand against God, and he has strengthened himself against the Almighty.
He has rushed against him with his throat exposed, and he has been armed with a fat neck.
Thickness has covered his face, and lard hangs down from his sides.
He has lived in desolate cities and deserted houses, which have been turned into tombs.
He will not be enriched, nor will his basic necessities endure, nor will he establish his root in the earth.
