Smoke rose from his (God's) nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it.
Smoke rose from his nostrils
Job 41:18-21 "Its (Leviathan's) snorting throws out flashes of light; its eyes are like rays of dawn. Flames stream from its mouth; sparks of fire shoot out. Smoke pours from its nostrils as from a boiling pot over burning reeds. Its breath sets coals ablaze, and flames dart from its mouth."
consuming fire came from his mouth
Exodus 15:7 "In the greatness of your majesty you threw down those who opposed you. You unleashed your burning anger; it consumed them like stubble."
Exodus 19:18 Mount Sinai was covered with smoke because the LORD descended on it in fire. The smoke billowed up from it like smoke from a furnace, and the whole mountain trembled violently.
Psalm 50:3 Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.
Psalm 97:3 Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side.
Daniel 7:10 "A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him (the Ancient of Days). Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened."
burning coals blazed out of it
Proverbs 25:21-22 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.
Romans 12:19-21 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," (Deuteronomy 32:35) says the Lord. On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." (Proverbs 25:21-22) Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
