Ah, welcome Behemoth! Nice name btw
^ thankyou, the definition of behemoth is, something of large size and power, it comes from some hebrew word for hippopotomus, which is large and powerfull.
Well its not really hippo. Its referring to Dinosaurs too in Job.
40:15 “Look now at Behemoth, 115 which I made as 116 I made you;
it eats grass like the ox.
40:16 Look 117 at its strength in its loins,
and its power in the muscles of its belly.
40:17 It makes its tail stiff 118 like a cedar,
the sinews of its thighs are tightly wound.
40:18 Its bones are tubes of bronze,
its limbs like bars of iron.
40:19 It ranks first among the works of God, 119
the One who made it
has furnished it with a sword. 120
40:20 For the hills bring it food, 121
where all the wild animals play.
40:21 Under the lotus trees it lies,
in the secrecy of the reeds and the marsh.
40:22 The lotus trees conceal it in their 122 shadow;
the poplars by the stream conceal it.
40:23 If the river rages, 123 it is not disturbed,
it is secure, 124 though the Jordan
should surge up to its mouth.
40:24 Can anyone catch it by its eyes, 125
or pierce its nose with a snare? 126
Hippos don't have stiff tails like Cedars... Cedars are trees.
Pray to GOD for him to reveal himself to you.

[Middle English behemoth, bemoth, from Hebrew bhmôt, pl. Of bhmâ, beast. See bhm in Semitic Roots.
N 1: someone or something that is abnormally large and powerful [syn: giant, goliath, monster, colossus] 2: a person of exceptional importance and reputation [syn: colossus, giant, heavyweight, titan
Behemoth
(Job 40:15-24). Some have supposed this to be an Egyptian word meaning a
"water-ox." The Revised Version has here in the margin "hippopotamus," which is
probably the correct rendering of the word. The word occurs frequently in
Scripture, but, except here, always as a common name, and translated "beast" or
"cattle."
