¹⁹“Do you give the horse its might? Do you clothe its neck with mane? ²⁰Do you make it leap like the locust? Its majestic snorting is terrible. ²¹It paws violently, exults mightily; it goes out to meet the weapons. ²²It laughs at fear, and is not dismayed; it does not turn back from the sword. ²³Upon it rattle the quiver, the flashing spear, and the javelin. ²⁴With fierceness and rage it swallows the ground; it cannot stand still at the sound of the trumpet. ²⁵When the trumpet sounds, it says ‘Aha!’ From a distance it smells the battle, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

²⁶“Is it by your wisdom that the hawk soars, and spreads its wings toward the south? ²⁷Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up and makes its nest on high? ²⁸It lives on the rock and makes its home in the fastness of the rocky crag. ²⁹From there it spies the prey; its eyes see it from far away. ³⁰Its young ones suck up blood; and where the slain are, there it is.”

40And the Lord said to Job: ²“Shall a faultfinder contend with the Almighty? Anyone who argues with God must respond.” ³Then Job answered the Lord: ⁴“See, I am of small account; what shall I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth. ⁵I have spoken once, and I will not answer; twice, but will proceed no further.”
