And the wild asses stood upon the rocks, they snuffed up the wind like dragons, their eyes failed, because there was no grass.

The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et onagri steterunt in rupibus ; traxerunt ventum quasi dracones : defecerunt oculi eorum, quia non erat herba.
Septuagint (Swete)
ὄνοι ἄγριοι ἔστησαν ἐπὶ νάπας· εἵλκυσαν ἄνεμον, ἐξέλιπον οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν, ὅτι οὐκ ἦν χόρτος.
Hebrew (WLC)
וּפְרָאִים֙ עָמְד֣וּ עַל שְׁפָיִ֔ם שָׁאֲפ֥וּ ר֖וּחַ כַּתַּנִּ֑ים כָּל֥וּ עֵינֵיהֶ֖ם כִּי אֵ֥ין עֵֽשֶׂב

Haydock's commentary

Wind, for refreshment.

Failed, through want, though they be very piercing.
