23 The weapons which their riders carryrattle and flash in the sun.
24 Trembling with excitement, the horses race ahead;when the trumpet blows, they can't stand still.
25 At each blast of the trumpet they snort;they can smell a battle before they get near,and they hear the officers shouting commands.
26 Does a hawk learn from you how to flywhen it spreads its wings toward the south?
27 Does an eagle wait for your commandto build its nest high in the mountains?
28 It makes its home on the highest rocksand makes the sharp peaks its fortress.
29 From there it watches near and farfor something to kill and eat.
