'Monster' in the Bible

“Am I the sea, or the sea monster,That You set a guard over me?

The desert creatures will meet with the wolves,The hairy goat also will cry to its kind;Yes, the night monster will settle thereAnd will find herself a resting place.

“Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has devoured me and crushed me,He has set me down like an empty vessel;He has swallowed me like a monster,He has filled his stomach with my delicacies;He has washed me away.

Speak and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God,“Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt,The great monster that lies in the midst of his rivers,That has said, ‘My Nile is mine, and I myself have made it.’

“Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him,‘You compared yourself to a young lion of the nations,Yet you are like the monster in the seas;And you burst forth in your riversAnd muddied the waters with your feetAnd fouled their rivers.’”
