Job 39:19-30 ▼

19 Have you given the horse strength? Did you clothe his neck with a mane?

20 Can you cause him to rush like a locust? The majesty of his snorting is terror.

21 They dig in the valley, and he rejoices in strength; he goes forth to meet the weaponry.

22 He laughs at dread and is not dismayed; he does not turn back from the face of the sword.

23 Upon him rattles the quiver, the flame of the spear and lance.

24 With quaking and raging he swallows the ground; he cannot stand still because of the voice of the shofar.

25 In the abundance of the shofar, he says, ‘Aha!’ And from afar He smells the battle, the thunder of captains and shouting.

26 By your understanding does the hawk soar and spread his wings toward the south?

27 Is it by your mouth that the eagle mounts up and makes his nest on high?

28 In the rock he dwells and lodges and his stronghold is upon the tooth of the rock.

29 From there he searches out food; from afar his eyes observe.

30 And his young ones suck up blood; and where the slain are, there he is.”
