Psalm 74:13-14

It was you who split open the sea by your power; you broke the heads of the monster in the waters. It was you who crushed the heads of Leviathan and gave it as food to the creatures of the desert.

It was you who split open the sea by your power 
Exodus 14:21-22  Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the LORD drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left.

you broke the heads of the monster in the waters 
Isaiah 27:1  In that day, the LORD will punish with his sword--his fierce, great and powerful sword--Leviathan the gliding serpent; he will slay the monster of the sea.
Isaiah 51:9  Awake, awake, arm of the LORD, clothe yourself with strength! Awake, as in days gone by, as in generations of old. Was it not you who cut Rahab to pieces, who pierced that monster through?
Ezekiel 29:3  " 'I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, you great monster lying among your streams. You say, "The Nile belongs to me; I made it for myself." ' "
Ezekiel 32:2  "Son of man, take up a lament concerning Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him: 'You are like a lion among the nations; you are like a monster in the seas thrashing about in your streams, churning the water with your feet and muddying the streams.' "

It was you who crushed the heads of Leviathan 
Job 3:8  "May those who curse days curse that day, those who are ready to rouse Leviathan."

and gave it as food to the creatures of the desert 
Isaiah 13:21  But desert creatures will lie there (in Babylon), jackals will fill her houses; there the owls will dwell, and there the wild goats will leap about.
Isaiah 23:13  Look at the land of the Babylonians, this people that is now of no account! The Assyrians have made it a place for desert creatures; they raised up their siege towers, they stripped the fortresses bare and turned it into a ruin.
Isaiah 34:14  Desert creatures will meet with hyenas, and wild goats will bleat to each other; there (in Edom) the night creatures will also lie down and find for themselves places of rest.
Jeremiah 50:39  "So desert creatures and hyenas will live there (in Babylon), and there the owl will dwell. It will never again be inhabited or lived in from generation to generation."
