Job 40:17-21 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

17. Its tail sways back and forth like a cedar tree. The tendons of its thighs are close together.

18. Its bones are like tubes made out of bronze. Its legs are like rods made out of iron.

19. It ranks first among my works. I made it. I can approach it with my sword.

20. The hills produce food for it. All of the other wild animals play near it.

21. It lies under lotus plants. It hides in tall grass in the swamps.
