"Do you know when the wild goats give birth? Have you watched as deer are born in the wild? |
2
|
Do you know how many months they carry their young? Are you aware of the time of their delivery? |
3
|
They crouch down to give birth to their young and deliver their offspring. |
4
|
Their young grow up in the open fields, then leave home and never return. |
5
|
"Who gives the wild donkey its freedom? Who untied its ropes? |
6
|
I have placed it in the wilderness; its home is the wasteland. |
7
|
It hates the noise of the city and has no driver to shout at it. |
8
|
The mountains are its pastureland, where it searches for every blade of grass. |
9
|
"Will the wild ox consent to being tamed? Will it spend the night in your stall? |
10
|
Can you hitch a wild ox to a plow? Will it plow a field for you? |
11
|
Given its strength, can you trust it? Can you leave and trust the ox to do your work? |
12
|
Can you rely on it to bring home your grain and deliver it to your threshing floor? |
13
|
"The ostrich flaps her wings grandly, but they are no match for the feathers of the stork. |
14
|
She lays her eggs on top of the earth, letting them be warmed in the dust. |
15
|
She doesn't worry that a foot might crush them or a wild animal might destroy them. |
16
|
She is harsh toward her young, as if they were not her own. She doesn't care if they die. |
17
|
For God has deprived her of wisdom. He has given her no understanding. |
18
|
But whenever she jumps up to run, she passes the swiftest horse with its rider. |
19
|
"Have you given the horse its strength or clothed its neck with a flowing mane? |
20
|
Did you give it the ability to leap like a locust? Its majestic snorting is terrifying! |
21
|
It paws the earth and rejoices in its strength when it charges out to battle. |
22
|
It laughs at fear and is unafraid. It does not run from the sword. |
23
|
The arrows rattle against it, and the spear and javelin flash. |
24
|
It paws the ground fiercely and rushes forward into battle when the ram's horn blows. |
25
|
It snorts at the sound of the horn. It senses the battle in the distance. It quivers at the captain's commands and the noise of battle. |
26
|
"Is it your wisdom that makes the hawk soar and spread its wings toward the south? |
27
|
Is it at your command that the eagle rises to the heights to make its nest? |
28
|
It lives on the cliffs, making its home on a distant, rocky crag. |
29
|
From there it hunts its prey, keeping watch with piercing eyes. |
30
|
Its young gulp down blood. Where there's a carcass, there you'll find it." |
