# Connecting Statement:

Yahweh continues to challenge Job.

# He

The word "He" refers to the horse.

# swallows up ground

The horse runs over the ground so quickly that the ground passes by like water that a person drinks. Alternate translation: "runs very fast over the ground" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# with fierceness and rage

The horse is very excited, so he moves quickly and strongly.

# at the trumpet's sound

It can be stated that someone blows the trumpet. Alternate translation: "when someone blows a trumpet to announce that a battle has begun" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# he cannot stand in one place

"he is too excited to stand still"
