Job 34:14–15 (ESV)

14 If he should set his heart to it and gather to himself his spirit and his breath,

Every living thing depends on God for every breath. God could easily withdraw his spirit and breath from his creatures. Yet he does not do this. This must prove to Job that God rules with love and fairness.
