Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:1 - Say if thou knowest the time of the bringing forth of the wild goats of the rock, and if thou hast marked the calving of the hinds:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:2 - and if thou hast numbered the full months of their being with young, and if thou hast relieved their pangs:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:3 - and hast reared their young without fear; and wilt thou loosen their pangs?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:4 - Their young will break forth; they will be multiplied with offspring: their young will go forth, and will not return to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:5 - And who is he that sent forth the wild ass free? and who loosed his bands?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:6 - whereas I made his habitation the wilderness, and the salt land his coverts.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:7 - He laughs to scorn the multitude of the city, and hears not the chiding of the tax-gatherer.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:8 - He will survey the mountains as his pasture, and he seeks after every green thing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:9 - And will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or to lie down at thy manger?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:10 - And wilt thou bind his yoke with thongs, or will he plough furrows for thee in the plain?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:11 - And dost thou trust him, because his strength is great? and wilt thou commit thy works to him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:12 - And wilt thou believe that he will return to thee thy seed, and bring it in to thy threshing-floor?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:13 - The peacock has a beautiful wing: if the stork and the ostrich conceive, it is worthy of notice,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:14 - for the ostrich will leave her eggs in the ground, and warm them on the dust,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:15 - and has forgotten that the foot will scatter them, and the wild beasts of the field trample them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:16 - She has hardened herself against her young ones, as though she bereaved not herself: she labours in vain without fear.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:17 - For God has withholden wisdom from her, and not given her a portion in understanding.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:18 - In her season she will lift herself on high; she will scorn the horse and his rider.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:19 - Hast thou invested the horse with strength, and clothed his neck with terror?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:20 - And hast thou clad him in perfect armour, and made his breast glorious with courage?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:21 - He paws exulting in the plain, and goes forth in strength into the plain.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:22 - He laughs to scorn a king as he meets him, and will by no means turn back from the sword.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:23 - The bow and sword resound against him; and his rage will swallow up the ground:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:24 - and he will not believe until the trumpet sounds.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:25 - And when the trumpet sounds, he says, Aha! and afar off he smells the war with prancing and neighing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:26 - And does the hawk remain steady by thy wisdom, having spread out her wings unmoved, looking toward the region of the south?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:27 - And does the eagle rise at thy command, and the vulture remain sitting over his nest,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:28 - on a crag of a rock, and in a secret place?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:29 - Thence he seeks food, his eyes observe from far.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:30 - And his young ones roll themselves in blood, and wherever the carcases may be, immediately they are found.
