2. God Compares the Power of Job with That of the Behemoth............... 40:15-24
Job 40:15
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.Job 40:16
Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.Job 40:17
He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.Job 40:18
His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.Job 40:19
He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.Job 40:20
Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.Job 40:21
He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.Job 40:22
The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.Job 40:23
Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.Job 40:24
He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
