Job 39

1Knowest thou the timeH6256 when the wild goatsH3277 of the rockH5553 bringH3205 forthH3205? dost thou mark the calving of the hinds? 2Dost thou number the monthsH3391 that they fulfil? and knowest thou the timeH6256 when they bringH3205 forthH3205? 3They bowH3766 themselves, they give birth to their youngH3206 ones, they cast out their painsH2256; 4Their youngH1121 ones become strong, they grow up in the open field, they goH3318 forthH3318, and returnH7725 not unto them. 5Who hath sentH7971 out the wildH6501 ass freeH2670? and who hath loosed the bands of the onager, 6Whose houseH1004 I madeH7760 the wilderness, and the salt plainH6160 his dwellingsH4908? 7He laugheth at the tumultH1995 of the city, and heareth not the shouts of the driver; 8The range of the mountainsH2022 is his pastureH4829, and he searcheth after every green thing. 9Will the buffalo be willingH14 to serveH5647 thee, or will he lodge by thy crib? 10Canst thou bindH7194 the buffalo with his cord in the furrowH8525? or will he harrowH7702 the valleysH6010 after thee? 11Wilt thou put confidence in him, because his strengthH3581 is greatH7227? and wilt thou leaveH5800 thy labour to him? 12Wilt thou trustH539 him to bringH7725 home thy seedH2233, and gatherH622 it into thy threshing-floor? 13The wingH3671 of the ostrich beats joyously — But is it the stork's pinionH84 and plumageH5133? 14For she leaveth her eggsH1000 to the earthH776, and warmeth them in the dustH6083, 15And forgetteth that the footH7272 may crush them, or that the beast of the fieldH7704 may trampleH1758 them. 16She is hardened against her youngH1121 ones, as though they were not hers; her labour is in vain, without her concern. 17For 1GodH433 hath deprived her of wisdomH2451, and hath not furnished her with understandingH998. 18What timeH6256 she lasheth herself on highH4791, she scorneth the horseH5483 and his riderH7392. 19Hast thou givenH5414 strengthH1369 to the horseH5483? hast thou clothedH3847 his neckH6677 with the quivering mane? 20Dost thou make him to leap as a locustH697? His majestic snorting is terrible. 21He paweth in the valleyH6010, and rejoiceth in [his] strengthH3581; he goeth forthH3318 to meet the armed host. 22He laugheth at fearH6343, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he backH7725 from before the swordH2719. 23The quiverH827 rattleth upon him, the glittering spearH2595 and the javelinH3591. 24He swalloweth the groundH776 with fierceness and rage, and cannot contain himself at the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782: 25At the noise of the trumpetsH7782 he saith, AhaH1889! and he smelleth the battleH4421 afarH7350 off, the thunderH7482 of the captains, and the shoutingH8643. 26Doth the hawk fly by thine intelligence, [and] stretch his wingsH3671 toward the southH8486? 27Doth the eagleH5404 mount up at thy command, and make his nestH7064 on highH7311? 28He inhabiteth the rockH5553 and maketh his dwellingH7931 on the point of the cliffH5553, and the fastness: 29From thence he spieth out the prey, his eyesH5869 lookH5027 into the distanceH7350; 30And his youngH667 onesH667 suck up bloodH1818; and whereH834 the slainH2491 are, there is he.
