Contextual Overview
19"Have you given the horse his might? Have you clothed his neck with quivering and a shaking mane? 20"Have you [Job] made him leap like a locust? The majesty of his snorting [nostrils] is terrible. 21"He paws in the valley and rejoices in his strength; He goes out to meet the weapons [of armed men]. 22"He laughs at fear and is not dismayed; And [in battle] he does not turn back from the sword.23"The quiver rattles against him, [As do] the flashing spear and the lance [of his rider]. 24"With fierceness and rage he races to devour the ground, And he does not stand still at the sound of the [war] trumpet. 25"As often as the trumpet sounds he says, 'Aha!' And he smells the battle from far away, And senses the thunder of the captains and the war cry.
