and smashes them on a rock!

13:17 Look, I am stirring up the Medes to attack them;

they will not look with pity on children.

they decide for themselves what is right.

and more alert than wolves in the desert.

Their horses gallop,

their horses come a great distance;

like a vulture they swoop down quickly to devour their prey.
