New Testament

Job 40:14-23 English Standard Version (ESV)

14. Then will I also acknowledge to youthat your own right hand can save you.

15. “Behold, Behemoth,which I made as I made you;he eats grass like an ox.

16. Behold, his strength in his loins,and his power in the muscles of his belly.

17. He makes his tail stiff like a cedar;the sinews of his thighs are knit together.

18. His bones are tubes of bronze,his limbs like bars of iron.

19. “He is the first of the works of God;let him who made him bring near his sword!

20. For the mountains yield food for himwhere all the wild beasts play.

21. Under the lotus plants he lies,in the shelter of the reeds and in the marsh.

22. For his shade the lotus trees cover him;the willows of the brook surround him.

23. Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened;he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth.
