Job 39:23The quiver rattleth upon him, the glittering spear and the javelin.
Job 39:24He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage, and cannot contain himself at the sound of the trumpet:
Job 39:25At the noise of the trumpets he saith, Aha! and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
Job 39:26Doth the hawk fly by thine intelligence, and stretch his wings toward the south?
Job 39:27Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make his nest on high?
Job 39:28He inhabiteth the rock and maketh his dwelling on the point of the cliff, and the fastness:
Job 39:29From thence he spieth out the prey, his eyes look into the distance;
Job 39:30And his young ones suck up blood; and where the slain are, there is he.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
