Job 39:26-30

Listen to Job 39:26-30

Hawk and eagle

26 Is it due to your understanding that the hawk flies, spreading its wings to the south?
27 Or at your command does the eagle soar, the vulture build a nest on high?
28 They dwell on an outcropping of rock, their fortress on rock's edge.
29 From there they search for food; their eyes notice it from afar,
30 and their young lap up blood; where carcasses lie, there they are.
