Job 39:5-12

5“Who sent the 1wild donkey out free? And who opened the bonds of the swift donkey,6To whom I gave 2the wilderness as his home, And the salt land as his dwelling place?7He laughs at the turmoil of the city, He does not hear the shouting of the taskmaster.8He explores the mountains of his pasture, And searches after every green thing.9Will the 3wild bull be willing to serve you, Or will he spend the night at your feeding trough?10Can you tie down the wild bull in a furrow with 4ropes, Or will he 5plow the valleys after you?11Will you trust him because his strength is great, And leave your labor to him?12Will you have faith in him that he will return your 6grain And gather it from your threshing floor?
