“On that day, the Lord will punish with his sword - his fierce, great, and powerful sword. Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent. God will slay the great dragon of the sea.”
An inspirational quote about the power of God, but also a reminder of the small scale of individual humans within the course of history.
Leviathan is literally the devil but also metaphorically represents anything of the scale of a force of nature - a war, a typhoon, a great depression. Most humans are so small and ineffectual that their schemes will never affect the motion of such gargantuan things. Only the Lord can control the sway of such things. Our reminder in this verse is to remain humble in His way.
