His majestic snorting is terrible. 21He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in [his] strength; he goeth forth to meet the armed host. 22He laugheth at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from before the sword. 23The quiver rattleth upon him, the glittering spear and the javelin. 24He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage, and cannot contain himself at the sound of the trumpet: 25At the noise of the trumpets he saith, Aha! and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting. 26Doth the hawk fly by thine intelligence, [and] stretch his wings toward the south? 27Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make his nest on high? 28He inhabiteth the rock and maketh his dwelling on the point of the cliff, and the fastness: 29From thence he spieth out the prey, his eyes look into the distance; 30And his young ones suck up blood; and where the slain are, there is he. ‹Previous chapterJob 38Next chapterJob 40›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsJob 39 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
