Job 39
39:1Do you know the time of the birthing of the antelopes of the rock? And did you watch the birth pangs of hinds?
39:2And did you count their full months of birthing? and did you untie their birth pangs?
39:3And did you nourish their offspring outside of fear? and will you send away their birth pangs?
39:4Their young shall rip forth; they shall be multiplied in offspring; their young will go forth and in no way shall return to them.
39:5And who is the one letting the wild donkey free? and who untied his bonds?
39:6For I established for his habitation a wilderness, and the salt-flats for his tents.
39:7He ridicules the great multitude of the city, and hears not the complaint of the tribute-gatherer.
39:8He shall survey the mountains as his pasture, and he seeks after every green thing.
39:9And shall the unicorn be willing to serve to you, or to sleep at your stable?
39:10And will you tie his yoke with straps, or will he draw furrows in the plain?
39:11And do you rely upon him, because his strength is great? and will you slacken your works for him?
39:12And do you trust that he will give back to you the seed, and carry it into your threshing-floor?
39:13The wing delighting ostriches; but should the stork conceive and feathers?
39:14for she shall let her eggs go unto the earth, and she shall incubate upon the dust;
39:15and she forgot that the foot will disperse them, and the wild beasts of the field will trample them.
39:16She hardened against her offspring, so as to not bereave herself; in vain she tired without fear.
39:17For God quelled her wisdom, and portioned not to her with understanding.
39:18In time she will raise up high in height; she will ridicule the horse and his rider.
39:19Or did you invest the horse with power, or clothe his neck in fear?
39:20And did you invest in him full armor, and the glory of his breast in daring?
39:21He prances rooting up in the plain, and he goes forth into the plain in strength.
39:22He ridicules meeting up with spears, and in no way turns from an iron weapon.
39:23Against him prance the bow and sword;
39:24and in anger he shall obliterate the ground. In no way shall he trust until whenever the trumpet signifies;
39:25and with the trumpet signifying, he says, Well done! And at a distance he smells war with leaping and crying out.
39:26And from your higher knowledge does the hawk set having the look of effrontery with wings fixed looking down towards the south?
39:27And at your order does the eagle rise up high, and does the vulture sit lodged upon its nest,
39:28upon the prominence of the rock and is concealed?
39:29Being at that place he seeks grain; his eyes watch at a distance,
39:30and his young befoul themselves in blood; and where ever ones dying might be, immediately they are found.
