acv@Job:39:1 @ Do thou know the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? [Or] can thou mark when the hinds do calve?

acv@Job:39:2 @ Can thou number the months that they fulfill? Or do thou know the time when they bring forth?

acv@Job:39:3 @ They bow themselves. They bring forth their young. They cast out their pains.

acv@Job:39:4 @ Their young ones become strong. They grow up in the open field. They go forth, and return not again.

acv@Job:39:5 @ Who has sent out the wild donkey free? Or who has loosed the bonds of the swift donkey

acv@Job:39:6 @ whose home I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling-place?

acv@Job:39:7 @ He scorns the tumult of the city, neither does he hear the shoutings of the driver.

acv@Job:39:8 @ The range of the mountains is his pasture, and he searches after every green thing.

acv@Job:39:9 @ Will the wild-ox be content to serve thee? Or will he abide by thy crib?

acv@Job:39:10 @ Can thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

acv@Job:39:11 @ Will thou trust him because his strength is great? Or will thou leave to him thy labor?

acv@Job:39:12 @ Will thou confide in him that he will bring home thy seed, and gather [the grain] of thy threshing-floor?

acv@Job:39:13 @ The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, [but] are they the pinions and plumage of love?

acv@Job:39:14 @ For she leaves her eggs on the ground, and warms them in the dust.

acv@Job:39:15 @ And she forgets that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may trample them.

acv@Job:39:16 @ She deals hardly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor be in vain, [she is] without fear,

acv@Job:39:17 @ because God has deprived her of wisdom, nor has he imparted understanding to her.

acv@Job:39:18 @ The time she lifts up herself on high she scorns the horse and his rider.

acv@Job:39:19 @ Have thou given the horse [his] might? Have thou clothed his neck with the quivering mane?

acv@Job:39:20 @ Have thou made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is awesome.

acv@Job:39:21 @ He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength. He goes out to meet the armed men.

acv@Job:39:22 @ He mocks at fear, and is not dismayed. Neither does he turn back from the sword.

acv@Job:39:23 @ The quiver rattles against him, the flashing spear and the javelin.

acv@Job:39:24 @ He swallows the ground with fierceness and rage, nor does he believe that it is the voice of the trumpet.

acv@Job:39:25 @ As often as the trumpet [sounds] he says, Aha! And he smells the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

acv@Job:39:26 @ Is it by thy wisdom that the hawk soars, (and) stretches her wings toward the south?

acv@Job:39:27 @ Is it at thy command that the eagle mounts up, and makes her nest on high?

acv@Job:39:28 @ She dwells on the cliff, and makes her home upon the point of the cliff and the stronghold.

acv@Job:39:29 @ From there she spies out the prey. Her eyes behold it afar off.

acv@Job:39:30 @ Her young ones also suck up blood. And where the slain are, there is she.
