Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
27 Shaking with passion, he is biting the earth; he is not able to keep quiet at the sound of the horn;
28 When it comes to his ears he says, Aha! He is smelling the fight from far off, and hearing the thunder of the captains, and the war-cries.
29 Is it through your knowledge that the hawk takes his flight, stretching out his wings to the south?
30 Or is it by your orders that the eagle goes up, and makes his resting-place on high?
31 On the rock is his house, and on the mountain-top his strong place.
32 From there he is watching for food; his eye sees it far off.
33 His young have blood for their drink, and where the dead bodies are, there is he to be seen.
