Job 39:24-26
Common English Bible
24 Excitedly, trembling, he swallows the ground;
can’t stand still at a trumpet’s blast.
25 At a trumpet’s sound, he says, “Aha!”
smells the battle from afar,
hears[a] officers’ shouting and the battle cry.

26 Is it due to your understanding that the hawk flies,
spreading its wings to the south?
