Daily Bible GNT September 26 Verses

¹⁹Was it you, Job, who made horses so strong

and gave them their flowing manes?

²⁰Did you make them leap like locusts

and frighten people with their snorting?

²¹They eagerly paw the ground in the valley;

they rush into battle with all their strength.

²²They do not know the meaning of fear,

and no sword can turn them back.

²³The weapons which their riders carry

rattle and flash in the sun.

²⁴Trembling with excitement, the horses race ahead;

when the trumpet blows, they can't stand still.

²⁵At each blast of the trumpet they snort;

they can smell a battle before they get near,

and they hear the officers shouting commands.

²⁶Does a hawk learn from you how to fly

when it spreads its wings toward the south?

²⁷Does an eagle wait for your command

to build its nest high in the mountains?

²⁸It makes its home on the highest rocks

and makes the sharp peaks its fortress.

²⁹From there it watches near and far

for something to kill and eat.

³⁰Around dead bodies the eagles gather,

and the young eagles drink the blood.

Job 40 ^1-2Job, you challenged Almighty God;

will you give up now, or will you answer?

Job
