, as if they
were
not hers.
Though
her labor is
in vain ,
she
is
without
fear,
She treats
her young harshly
, as if not her own,
with
no
concern
that
her
labor was
in vain .
Because
God has deprived her of wisdom ,
Neither
has
he imparted
to

He has
not
endowed
her with
understanding.
When she lifts
up
herself
on
high

rider.
"Have

Have
you
clothed
his neck with a quivering
mane?
Do
you give
strength
to
the horse or
adorn
his neck with a mane?
Have

glory
of
his snorting is
awesome.
Do
you make
him leap like
a locust ,
striking
terror
with
his proud
snorting ?

and rejoices in his strength :
He goes
out
to
meet
the
armed
men

of
nothing

not
turn back from the sword.
The
quiver rattles against
him
, The
flashing spear and the
javelin
.

quiver rattles at
his
side
, along
with
a
flashing spear and lance
.
He
eats
up
the
ground
with fierceness
and
rage
, Neither
does
he stand still at
the
sound
of
the trumpet
.
Trembling
with excitement
, he devours
the
distance;
he
cannot
stand still when
the ram’s
horn
sounds
.
As
often
as
the trumpet
sounds
he snorts ,
'Aha!'
He smells
the battle afar off,
The thunder
of the
captains ,
and the shouting
.
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
.

that
the hawk soars,
And stretches

wings toward the south?

at your command that
the
eagle
mounts
up,
And makes
his nest on high?

the
eagle
soar
at your command and make
his nest on high?
On
the
cliff
he dwells ,
and
makes
his
home,
On the
point
of
the
cliff ,
and the
stronghold.
He dwells on a
cliff and lodges
there;
his
stronghold is
on
a
rocky
crag
.
From there he spies out the
prey.
His eyes see it afar off
.
From there he spies out food;
his eyes see it from
afar.
His young ones also
suck
up
blood .
Where the slain are, there he is. "
His young ones feast
on
blood ;
and
where the slain are, there he is. ”
