“ Job, do you give horses their strength? Do you put flowing manes on their necks?Do you make them jump like locusts? They terrify others with their proud snorting.They paw the ground wildly. They are filled with joy. They charge at their enemies.They laugh at fear. They are not afraid of anything. They do not run away from swords.Many arrows rattle at their sides. Flashing spears and javelins are also there.They are so excited that they race over the ground. They can’t stand still when trumpets are blown.When they hear the trumpets they snort,‘ Aha!’ They catch the smells of battle far away. They hear the shouts of commanders and the battle cries.

The king of Israel has hired the Hittite and Egyptian kings. He has paid them to attack us!”So the soldiers of Aram had run away at sunset. They had left their tents and horses and donkeys behind. They had left the camp just as it was. And they had run for their lives.
