Job 40:14
12 Look on every proud man and humble him; trample the wicked where they stand.
13 Bury them together in the dust; imprison them in the grave.
Then I will confess to you that your own right hand can save you.
15 Look at Behemoth, which I made along with you. He feeds on grass like an ox.
16 See the strength of his loins and the power in the muscles of his belly.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
