Job 39

1Knowest thou the timeH6256 when the wild goatsH3277 of the rockH5553 bringH3205 forthH3205? Or canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?2Canst thou number the monthsH3391 that they fulfil? Or knowest thou the timeH6256 when they bringH3205 forthH3205?3They bowH3766 themselves, they bring forthH7971 their youngH3206, They cast out their painsH2256.4Their youngH1121 ones become strong, they grow up in the open field; They goH3318 forthH3318, and returnH7725 not again.5Who hath sentH7971 out the wildH6501 ass freeH2670? Or who hath loosed the bonds of the swift ass,6Whose home I have madeH7760 the wilderness, And the salt land his dwelling-place?7He scorneth the tumultH1995 of the city, Neither heareth he the shoutings of the driver.8The range of the mountainsH2022 is his pastureH4829, And he searcheth after every green thing.9Will the wild-ox be content to serveH5647 thee? Or will he abide by thy crib?10Canst thou bindH7194 the wild-ox with his band in the furrowH8525? Or will he harrowH7702 the valleysH6010 after thee?11Wilt thou trustH982 him, because his strengthH3581 is greatH7227? Or wilt thou leaveH5800 to him thy labor?12Wilt thou confide in him, that he will bringH7725 home thy seedH2233, And gatherH622the grainof thy threshing-floor?13The wingsH3671 of the ostrich wave proudly; But are they the pinionsH84 and plumageH5133 of love?14For she leaveth her eggsH1000 on the earthH776, And warmeth them in the dustH6083,15And forgetteth that the footH7272 may crush them, Or that the wild beast may trampleH1758 them.16She dealeth hardly with her youngH1121 ones, as if they were not hers: Though her labor be in vain, she is without fearH6343;17Because GodH433 hath deprived her of wisdomH2451, Neither hath he imparted to her understandingH998.18What timeH6256 she lifteth up herself on highH4791, She scorneth the horseH5483 and his riderH7392.19Hast thou givenH5414 the horseH5483hismight? Hast thou clothedH3847 his neckH6677 with the quivering mane?20Hast thou made him to leap as a locustH697? The glory of his snorting is terrible.21He paweth in the valleyH6010, and rejoiceth in his strengthH3581: He goeth out to meet the armed men.22He mocketh at fearH6343, and is not dismayedH2865; Neither turneth he backH7725 from the swordH2719.23The quiverH827 rattleth against him, The flashing spearH2595 and the javelinH3591.24He swalloweth the groundH776 with fierceness and rage; Neither believeth he that it is the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782.25As oft as the trumpetH7782soundethhe saith, AhaH1889! And he smelleth the battleH4421 afarH7350 off, The thunderH7482 of the captains, and the shoutingH8643.26Is it by thy wisdom that the hawk soareth, And stretcheth her wingsH3671 toward the southH8486?27Is it at thy command that the eagleH5404 mounteth up, And maketh her nestH7064 on highH7311?28On the cliffH5553 she dwelleth, and maketh her home, Upon the point of the cliffH5553, and the stronghold.29From thence she spieth out the prey; Her eyesH5869 behold it afarH7350 off.30Her youngH667 onesH667 also suck up bloodH1818: And whereH834 the slainH2491 are, there is she.
