Job 40:15-17
Contemporary English Version
Job 40:15-17
Contemporary English Version
I Created You
15 I created both you
and the hippopotamus.[a]
It eats only grass like an ox,
16 but look at the mighty muscles
in its body 17 and legs.
Its tail is like a cedar tree,
and its thighs are thick.
Footnotes
- 40.15 the hippopotamus: The Hebrew text has “Behemoth,” which was sometimes understood to be a sea monster like Rahab (9.13; 26.12), Leviathan (3.8; 41.1), and Tannin (7.12).
