Bible verse
Does the hawk take flight by your understanding and spread his wings toward the south?
Job 39:26 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 39.
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.
25 At the blast of the horn, he snorts with fervor. He catches the scent of battle from afar—the shouts of captains and the cry of war.
26 Does the hawk take flight by your understanding and spread his wings toward the south?
27 Does the eagle soar at your command and make his nest on high?
28 He dwells on a cliff and lodges there; his stronghold is on a rocky crag.
29 From there he spies out food; his eyes see it from afar.
30 His young ones feast on blood; and where the slain are, there he is.”
