Jeremiah 8:6
New Living Translation
6 I listen to their conversations
and don’t hear a word of truth.
Is anyone sorry for doing wrong?
Does anyone say, “What a terrible thing I have done”?
No! All are running down the path of sin
as swiftly as a horse galloping into battle!

Job 39:19-25
New Living Translation
19 “Have you given the horse its strength
or clothed its neck with a flowing mane?
20 Did you give it the ability to leap like a locust?
Its majestic snorting is terrifying!
21 It paws the earth and rejoices in its strength
when it charges out to battle.
22 It laughs at fear and is unafraid.
It does not run from the sword.
23 The arrows rattle against it,
and the spear and javelin flash.
24 It paws the ground fiercely
and rushes forward into battle when the ram’s horn blows.
25 It snorts at the sound of the horn.
It senses the battle in the distance.
It quivers at the captain’s commands and the noise of battle.
Job 39:19-25

and charges into the fray.(F)
22 It laughs(G) at fear, afraid of nothing;
it does not shy away from the sword.
23 The quiver(H) rattles against its side,
along with the flashing spear(I) and lance.
24 In frenzied excitement it eats up the ground;
it cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.(J)
25 At the blast of the trumpet(K) it snorts, ‘Aha!’
It catches the scent of battle from afar,
the shout of commanders and the battle cry.(L)
