Job 40:18-20

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁸ His bones are like tubes of bronze; his limbs [or ribs] are like bars of iron.

¹⁹ [The hippopotamus] is the first [in magnitude and power] of the works of God [in animal life]; [only] He Who made him provides him with his [swordlike tusks, or only God Who made him can bring near His sword to master him].

²⁰ Surely the mountains bring him food, where all the wild animals play.
