יֹ֘אמַ֤ר הֶאָ֗ח

Yahweh is speaking of a horse as if it could speak and use this expression to show its delight. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “it snorts enthusiastically.”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
יָרִ֣יחַ מִלְחָמָ֑ה

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
רַ֥עַם שָׂ֝רִים וּתְרוּעָֽה
thunder captains and,battle_cry

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
רַ֥עַם שָׂ֝רִים
thunder captains
Yahweh is speaking as if the loud orders that the princes or commanders were shouting to their troops were literally thunder. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the loud shouts of the princes” or “the loudly shouted orders of the princes”
