Job 40:15-24

15Listen! I created the monsters called Behemoth. I made you and I made them too. They eat grass, as cows do.

16But look at the strength of their legs and their body!

17Their tails are like the branches of a cedar tree. Their legs are thick and very strong.

18Their bones are like sticks made of bronze. Their legs are as strong as iron.

19These monsters are some of the greatest animals that I have made. But I who made them can take my sword and go near to them.

20They eat the grass that grows on the hills. That is where the wild animals play.

21They lie down under the thorn trees. They hide among the reeds at the edge of the water.

22They rest in the shadow of the thorn trees, and among the willow trees beside the water.

23Even when the river is deep and dangerous, these monsters are not afraid. The water of the Jordan River may cover their mouths, but they still feel safe.

24There is no way that anyone can catch one of them. No one can make its eyes blind. No one can put a ring in its nose and lead it away.’
