Verse
Job - ch 39 v 1 - 20
- Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? dost thou mark the calving of the hinds?
- Dost thou number the months that they fulfil? and knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
- They bow themselves, they give birth to their young ones, they cast out their pains;
- Their young ones become strong, they grow up in the open field, they go forth, and return not unto them.
- Who hath sent out the wild ass free? and who hath loosed the bands of the onager,
- Whose house I made the wilderness, and the salt plain his dwellings?
- He laugheth at the tumult of the city, and heareth not the shouts of the driver;
- The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
- Will the buffalo be willing to serve thee, or will he lodge by thy crib?
- Canst thou bind the buffalo with his cord in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
- Wilt thou put confidence in him, because his strength is great? and wilt thou leave thy labour to him?
- Wilt thou trust him to bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy threshing-floor?
- The wing of the ostrich beats joyously -- But is it the stork's pinion and plumage?
- For she leaveth her eggs to the earth, and warmeth them in the dust,
- And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the beast of the field may trample them.
- She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers; her labour is in vain, without her concern.
- For +God hath deprived her of wisdom, and hath not furnished her with understanding.
- What time she lasheth herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
- Hast thou given strength to the horse? hast thou clothed his neck with the quivering mane?
- Dost thou make him to leap as a locust? His majestic snorting is terrible.
