Job 40:21
19 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.
He lies under the lotus plants, hidden among the reeds of the marsh.
22 The lotus plants conceal him in their shade; the willows of the brook surround him.
23 Though the river rages, Behemoth is unafraid; he remains secure, though the Jordan surges to his mouth.
