Bible verse
Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting?
Job 39:20 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 39.
16 She treats her young harshly, as if not her own, with no concern that her labor was in vain.
17 For God has deprived her of wisdom; He has not endowed her with understanding.
18 Yet when she proudly spreads her wings, she laughs at the horse and its rider.
19 Do you give strength to the horse or adorn his neck with a mane?
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.
22 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.
KJV
Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils [is] terrible.
ASV
Hast thou made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is terrible.
ERV
Hast thou made him to leap as a locust? the glory of his snorting is terrible.
