uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

הֵ֤ן יַעֲשֹׁ֣ק נָ֭הָר

if rages river

Yahweh is using the word Behold to introduce a conditional statement, that is, to say how Behemoth would respond if a certain thing happened. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “Even if a river overflows”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לֹ֣א יַחְפּ֑וֹז

not frightened

Yahweh means implicitly that Behemoth does not tremble with fear when rivers flood. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “it does not tremble with fear”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

יַרְדֵּ֣ן

Yardēn/(Jordan)

Yahweh is using one specific river, the Jordan, to mean any river in which Behemoth might be living. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the river in which it is living”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

40:15-24 Following a list of natural animals (39:1-30), God described Behemoth (40:15-24) and Leviathan (41:1-34) as creatures that man cannot tame. Job couldn’t tame the wild donkey or ox (39:5-12), let alone Behemoth and Leviathan (40:15-24), but God created them and could control them, and Job had to acknowledge it (41:2).
• Here Behemoth seems to be a natural creature: (1) It is an animal that God made, just as he made Job (40:15); (2) it is not a dreadful predator but eats grass like an ox (40:15); and (3) it is in a poem describing God’s creation of the natural order, rather than in a mythological story of the world’s formation. Most commentators identify Behemoth with the hippopotamus, a huge, grass-eating animal (40:15-19) that lies in the river among the lotus plants and reeds (40:21). Like the wild ox, Behemoth is powerful (40:16-18, 24; 39:11), yet is essentially peaceful (40:20-23).
