Job 39:22-28

22It laughs at fear, afraid of nothing; it does not shy away from the sword.

23The quiver rattles against its side, along with the flashing spear and lance.

24In frenzied excitement it eats up the ground; it cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.

25At the blast of the trumpet it snorts, ‘Aha!’ It catches the scent of battle from afar, the shout of commanders and the battle cry.

26“Does the hawk take flight by your wisdom and spread its wings toward the south?

27Does the eagle soar at your command and build its nest on high?

28It dwells on a cliff and stays there at night; a rocky crag is its stronghold.
