Job 39:19-30 ▼

19 Do you give might to the horse? Do you clothe his neck [with] a mane?

20 Do you cause him to rush as a locust? The splendor of his snorting [is] terrible.

21 They dig in a valley, and he rejoices in power, || He goes forth to meet the armor.

22 He laughs at fear, and is not frightened, || And he does not turn back from the face of the sword.

23 Quiver rattles against him, || The flame of a spear, and a javelin.

24 He swallows the ground with trembling and rage, || And does not remain steadfast || Because of the sound of a horn.

25 Among the horns he says, Aha, || And from afar he smells battle, || Roaring of princes and shouting.

26 By your understanding does a hawk fly? Does he spread his wings to the south?

27 At your command does an eagle go up high? Or lift up his nest?

28 He inhabits a rock, || Indeed, he lodges on the tooth of a rock, and fortress.

29 From there he has sought food, || His eyes look attentively to a far-off place,

30 And his brood sucks up blood, || And where the pierced [are]—there [is] he!”
