But a human being is born to trouble, and {they soar aloft} [like] {sparks}.

"Does [the] hawk soar by your wisdom? Does it spread its wings to [the] south?

Does the eagle soar at your command
and make its nest on high?

I am weary with my groaning;
Every night I soak my bed with tears,
I drench my couch with my weeping.

Their slain will be left unburied, their corpses will stink; the hills will soak up their blood.

but those who trust in the Lord
will renew their strength;
they will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary;
they will walk and not faint.

For if you wash with natron, and you {use much soap}, your guilt [is] sticking as a stain {before} me," {declares} the Lord Yahweh.

Though you seem to soar like an eagle
and make your nest among the stars,
even from there I will bring you down.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

And who is bearing the day of his coming? And who is standing in his appearing? For he is as fire of a refiner, And as soap of a fuller.
