Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.

ગુજરાતીહબાક્કુક ૧:૮
તેઓના ઘોડાઓ દીપડાઓ કરતાં વધારે જલદ છે, સાંજના વરુઓ કરતાં વિકરાળ છે. તેઓના ઘોડાઓ પર છાપ મારેલી છે, અને તેઓના ઘોડેસવારો ઘણે દૂરથી આવે છે. તેઓ ઝડપથી ઊડતા ગરુડની માફક ભક્ષ કરવા માટે દોડે છે.
हिन्दीहबक्कूक १:८
उनके घोड़े चीतों से भी अधिक वेग से चलनेवाले हैं, और साँझ को आहेर करनेवाले भेड़ियों से भी अधिक क्रूर हैं; उनके सवार दूर-दूर कूदते-फाँदते आते हैं। हाँ, वे दूर से चले आते हैं; और आहेर पर झपटनेवाले उकाब के समान झपट्टा मारते हैं।

In context

7They are feared and dreaded. Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.

8Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.

9All of them come for violence. Their hordes face forward. They gather prisoners like sand.

10Yes, they scoff at kings, and princes are a derision to them. They laugh at every stronghold, for they build up an earthen ramp and take it.
