Job 40:19

¹⁷ His tail sways like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.

¹⁸ His bones are tubes of bronze; his limbs are rods of iron.

He is the foremost of God’s works; only his Maker can draw the sword against him.

²⁰ The hills yield him their produce, while all the beasts of the field play nearby.

²¹ He lies under the lotus plants, hidden among the reeds of the marsh.
