Job 39
Revised Webster's Bible
1KnowestH3045 thou the timeH6256 when the wild goatsH3277 of the rockH5553 bring forthH3205? or canst thou markH8104 when the hindsH355 do calveH2342? 2Canst thou numberH5608 the monthsH3391 that they fulfilH4390? or knowestH3045 thou the timeH6256 when they bring forthH3205? 3They bowH3766 themselves, they bring forthH6398 their young onesH3206, they cast outH7971 their sorrowsH2256. 4Their young onesH1121 are become strongH2492, they grow strongH7235 with grainH1250; they go forthH3318, and returnH7725 not to them. 5Who hath sent outH7971 the wild donkeyH6501 freeH2670? or who hath loosedH6605 the bandsH4147 of the wild donkeyH6171? 6Whose houseH1004 I have madeH7760 the wildernessH6160, and the barrenH4420 land his dwellingsH4908.1 7He scornethH7832 the multitudeH1995 of the cityH7151, neither regardethH8085 he the cryingH8663 of the driverH5065.2 8The rangeH3491 of the mountainsH2022 is his pastureH4829, and he searchethH1875 afterH310 every green thingH3387. 9Will the unicornH7214 be willingH14 to serveH5647 thee, or abideH3885 by thy cribH18? 10Canst thou bindH7194 the unicornH7214 with his bandH5688 in the furrowH8525? or will he harrowH7702 the valleysH6010 afterH310 thee? 11Wilt thou trustH982 him, because his strengthH3581 is greatH7227? or wilt thou leaveH5800 thy labourH3018 to him? 12Wilt thou believeH539 him, that he will bring homeH7725 thy seedH2233, and gatherH622 it into thy barnH1637?
13Gavest thou the goodlyH7443 wingsH3671 to the peacocksH5965? or wingsH84 and feathersH2624 to the ostrichH5133?3 14Which leavethH5800 her eggsH1000 in the earthH776, and warmethH2552 them in the dustH6083, 15And forgettethH7911 that the footH7272 may crushH2115 them, or that the wildH7704 beastH2416 may breakH1758 them. 16She is hardenedH7188 against her young onesH1121, as though they were notH3808 hers: her labourH3018 is in vainH7385 without fearH6343; 17Because GodH433 hath withheldH5382 wisdom from herH2451, neither hath he impartedH2505 to her understandingH998. 18WhenH6256 she liftethH4754 herself on highH4791, she scornethH7832 the horseH5483 and his riderH7392.
19Hast thou givenH5414 the horseH5483 strengthH1369? hast thou clothedH3847 his neckH6677 with thunderH7483? 20Canst thou make him afraidH7493 as a grasshopperH697? the gloryH1935 of his nostrilsH5170 is terribleH367.4 21He pawethH2658 in the valleyH6010, and rejoicethH7797 in his strengthH3581: he goeth onH3318 to meetH7125 the armed menH5402.56 22He mockethH7832 at fearH6343, and is not dismayedH2865; neither turneth he backH7725 fromH6440 the swordH2719. 23The quiverH827 rattlethH7439 against him, the glitteringH3851 spearH2595 and the shieldH3591. 24He swallowethH1572 the groundH776 with fiercenessH7494 and rageH7267: neither believethH539 he that it is the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782. 25He saithH559 amongH1767 the trumpetsH7782, HaH1889, haH1889; and he smellethH7306 the battleH4421 afar offH7350, the thunderH7482 of the captainsH8269, and the shoutingH8643.
26Doth the hawkH5322 flyH82 by thy wisdomH998, and stretchH6566 her wingsH3671 toward the southH8486? 27Doth the eagleH5404 mount upH1361 at thy commandH6310, and makeH7311 her nestH7064 on highH7311?7 28She dwellethH7931 and abidethH3885 on the rockH5553, upon the cragH8127 of the rockH5553, and the strong placeH4686. 29From there she seekethH2658 the preyH400, and her eyesH5869 beholdH5027 afar offH7350. 30Her young onesH667 also suck upH5966 bloodH1818: and where the slainH2491 are, there is sheH1931.
