Job 40

Job realises that he did not really accuse God and he did respect God , but some words were unwise because of his sufferings.

It also talks abt the hippo , it’s a strong and tough animal but still it doesn’t over power God as it his creation .(verse 19 The hippo is the greatest of my works. But I, God, made the hippo. And I can kill it.)

Even when troubles comes ,the hippo is not afraid cause he knows God has made him strong enough to face dangers v23 The hippo is not afraid when the river floods. Even if the river Jordan rises as high as its mouth, the hippo is safe.

Job really does realize his words were unwise and is humbled here. It's awesome that God describes a hippo in that way (although, some say He was speaking of an elephant)
:)
Either way they are so mighty and yet God made them, knows their ways and can control them. Like you said, he is safe enough to face dangers. And in the same way, he equipped us to face all that comes against us in life with the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-16) He is so good to His creations
