International Standard Version

On Behemoth

15 “Please observe[a] Behemoth,[b] which I made along with you.
    He eats grass like an ox.
16 Now take a look at the strength that he has in his loins,
    and in the muscles of his abdomen.
17 His tail protrudes stiffly, like cedar;[c]
    the sinews of his thigh interlink for strength.
