Job 39:22

CreationGod's power and sovereignty

20 Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting?

21 He paws in the valley and rejoices in his strength; he charges into battle.

He laughs at fear, frightened of nothing; he does not turn back from the sword.

23 A quiver rattles at his side, along with a flashing spear and lance.

24 Trembling with excitement, he devours the distance; he cannot stand still when the ram’s horn sounds.
