His bones are conduits of bronze; his strong bones are like bars of iron. He is the grandest of God's undertakings, yet his creator is approaching him with his sword. Mountains produce food for him, where all the wild animals frolic. He lies under the lotus trees, hiding under reeds and marshes. The lotus trees cover him with their shade, and willows that line the wadis surround him. What you see as a raging river doesn't alarm him; he is confident when the Jordan overflows. Are your eyes looking to capture him, or to pierce his snout with a bridle?"

Job 41:1-34

Will he try to make a deal with you, so that you may take him in servitude forever? "Will you play with him like a pet bird? Will you put a leash on him for your little girls? Will your business be able to buy him, Will you divide him among your merchant friends? Will you fill his flesh with harpoons, or his head with lances? Lay your hand on him, and you'll remember the struggle. You'll never do that again! "Look! Anyone's hope to capture him will prove itself false; anyone would be terrified just by looking at him. No one is fierce enough to dare to arouse him. "Who, then, can stand in my presence and face me? Who can take me to court and be reconciled to me? All of heaven is mine. "I won't be silent concerning his limbs, his mighty strength, and orderly frame. Who can strip off his outer armor? Who can approach him with a bridle? Who dares to open his mouth, since it is ringed with his terrible teeth! His protective scales are his pride, they lie sealed tightly together. Each one is so close to the other that not even air comes in between them. Each is attached to the other, grasping each other so they cannot be separated. "His snorting releases flashes of light; his eyes are like the rays of the dawn. Flames blaze from his mouth; streams of sparking fire fly out. Smoke billows from his nostrils; like a boiling pot or burning reeds. His breath can ignite coal; and flames proceed from his mouth. "His neck is so powerful that all who meet him are terrified. There is no flaw in his body's armor; it is firmly fixed on him and unbreachable. His heart is as strong as stone, it is as hard as a lower millstone. When he rears up, the mighty are terrified; they are bewildered as he thrashes about. "Thrusting at him with a sword won't be effective, nor will spears, darts, or javelins. He regards iron like straw, and hardened bronze like a dead tree. Arrows won't make him flee; stones from a sling are only pebbles to him. Clubs are like twigs; he laughs at the whoosh of the javelin. "Beneath him he is armored as with sharp potsherds; he tears through muddy ground like a threshing sledge through grain. He causes the deep to boil like water in a pot, and churns the sea like one stirs ointment. The sea is luminescent behind him; his wake turns the sea white, like those with gray hair. "There's nothing like him on earth; he was created without the ability to fear. He looks down on everything that is high; he rules over every kind of pride."

Psalm 104:26

There, the ships pass through; Leviathan, which you created, frolics in it.

Genesis 1:24-31

Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth each kind of living creature, each kind of livestock and crawling thing, and each kind of earth's animals!" And that is what happened: God made each kind of the earth's animals, along with every kind of livestock and crawling thing. And God saw how good it was. Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, to be like us. Let them be masters over the fish in the ocean, the birds that fly, the livestock, everything that crawls on the earth, and over the earth itself!"read more.
So God created mankind in his own image; in his own image God created them; he created them male and female. God blessed the humans by saying to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it! Be masters over the fish in the ocean, the birds that fly, and every living thing that crawls on the earth!" God also told them, "Look! I have given you every seed-bearing plant that grows throughout the earth, along with every tree that grows seed-bearing fruit. They will produce your food. I have given all green plants as food for every wild animal of the earth, every bird that flies, and to every living thing that crawls on the earth." And that is what happened. Now God saw all that he had made, and indeed, it was very good! The twilight and the dawn were the sixth day.

Genesis 1:29

God also told them, "Look! I have given you every seed-bearing plant that grows throughout the earth, along with every tree that grows seed-bearing fruit. They will produce your food.
