18. But when the ostrich gets up to run, it is so fastthat it laughs at the horse and its rider.
19. “Job, are you the one who gives the horse its strengthor puts a flowing mane on its neck?
20. Do you make the horse jump like a locust?It scares people with its proud snorting.
21. It paws wildly, enjoying its strength,and charges into battle.
22. It laughs at fear and is afraid of nothing;it does not run away from the sword.
23. The bag of arrows rattles against the horse’s side,along with the flashing spears and swords.
24. With great excitement, the horse races over the ground;and it cannot stand still when it hears the trumpet.
25. When the trumpet blows, the horse snorts, ‘Aha!’It smells the battle from far away;it hears the shouts of commanders and the battle cry.
26. “Is it through your wisdom that the hawk fliesand spreads its wings toward the south?
27. Are you the one that commands the eagle to flyand build its nest so high?
28. It lives on a high cliff and stays there at night;the rocky peak is its protected place.
29. From there it looks for its food;its eyes can see it from far away.
30. Its young eat blood,and where there is something dead, the eagle is there.”
