Job 40:15-24
“ Look at Behemoth. It is a huge animal. I made both of you. It eats grass like an ox.Look at the strength it has in its hips! What power it has in the muscles of its stomach!Its tail sways back and forth like a cedar tree. The tendons of its thighs are close together.Its bones are like tubes made out of bronze. Its legs are like rods made out of iron.It ranks first among my works. I made it. I can approach it with my sword.The hills produce food for it. All the other wild animals play near it.It lies under lotus plants. It hides in tall grass in the swamps.The lotus plants hide it in their shade. Poplar trees near streams surround it.It is not afraid when the river roars. It is secure even when the Jordan River rushes against its mouth.Can anyone capture it by its eyes? Can anyone trap it and poke a hole through its nose?

“ But who am I? And who are my people? Without your help we wouldn’t be able to give this much. Everything comes from you. We’ve given back to you only what comes from you.We are outsiders and strangers in your sight. So were all of our people who lived long ago. Our days on this earth are like a shadow. We don’t have any hope.Lord our God, we’ve given more than enough. We’ve provided it to build you a temple where you will put your holy Name. But all of it comes from you. All of it belongs to you.
